My D checked. Didn’t show a decision one way or the other from what we could tell.
Daughter admitted! OOS 3.87/4.3 1440 SAT 34 ACT. Invited to apply to Honors. Excited, but now must wait on Aid letter to see if feasible. Congrats to all!
@303mom Where did you see the invite to apply to Honors?
I THINK it was on the portal on the “admitted” page. On the right side, if I’m remembering correctly. Don’t have my daughter’s login or I would look. Sorry.
Thank you so much!
Does anyone know how they consider students for the honors program? I have a 4.2 GPA and 1500 SAT, with extremely solid extra curriculars and was hoping to be invited to apply to honors, but I was not.
@CollegeAhead I’m in the same situation as you. I have a 4.58 GPA and 1500 SAT with long-term extracurriculars and leadership positions, but so far I don’t see an invite to apply. I’m hoping there’s still a chance that it’ll show up tomorrow, but I think that even if we don’t get invited to apply now we can apply after our first semester at USD.
@303mom Thank you! I’ll keep looking.
Congrats to everyone who has received their acceptances from USD! Are there any Business majors in here (more specifically perhaps Finance)? I am not sure if I can get into the Finance program with my stats: 3.3 UW GPA, 3.9 W, 27 ACT, 6 APs, bunch of honors classes, President of DECA & French Club, Secretary for Speech and Debate Varsity Team, good volunteer hours.
Yeah it’s so confusing. I’m hoping it appears in our portals soon??
I was accepted and invited to apply to the Honors program! So happy that I was accepted 
How do I check what major I got in as and the financial aid I received? It says Good Standing when I try to check.
@dhjh1720 idk what your portal says but mine (i haven’t heard back if I got in or not) says the following: “During the application process, all students are assigned to the College of Arts and Sciences with an Undecided major, regardless of stated academic interest. You will be able to declare your major after beginning classes at USD.”
My son’s says the same. I assume that means no decision has been made. I don’t understand why they can’t be more clear about it and just say decision pending like CSUs do.
It says in review
DD admitted. OOS, 1430 SAT, GPA UW 3.95, Weighted 4.98, Lots of AP’s.
How do you know you were invited to apply to honors?
It says “Congratulations on being invited to apply to the Honors Program” or smthng like that
That’s interesting.
Hearing some of the really high scores that some people (like @CollegeAhead and @sammycp) have who weren’t invited to honors, there has to be more information about honors to come, if there has even been any already.
There has been some already, I just told you I got it…
What it says if you were invited:
Apply to the Honors Program now!
Congratulations on being invited to apply to the Honors Program! To be considered, you must complete a very short (and fun!) online application. We want you to use this application as an opportunity to help us get a better sense of who you are and why the Honors experience would be valuable to you.
