<p>What are the average stats of someone to get into the honors college?</p>
<p>Out of Fall 2010 “Honors Forum”. Doesn’t show GPA, but I believe I’ve seen that as a median range of 3.8 - 4.0. </p>
<p>As in years past, the 2010 incoming Honors
class is a diversely talented group of students.
We welcome 497 students into Honors this
year and in many ways they are similar to last
year’s cohort. As was the case last year, there
are more women (53%) than men in this
class and 61% of this year’s class are residents
of the state of Michigan, which is a slight
decrease from 63% last year. Academically,
our students remain distinguished: our
median ACT range is 31-34, which is identical
to last year’s range. The median range for
SAT scores this year is 1350-1510, which is
also very similar to last year’s range of 1370-
1490.
As we all know, however, test scores and
grades are only a part of our toolkit for
identifying promising Honors students.
That’s why we urge all students admitted
to LSA who believe that Honors could be a
good fit with their interests to apply to the
Program by writing an essay as part of their
application to Honors. The Honors essay is
an invaluable part of our holistic evaluation
methodology. It’s a time- and labor-intensive
process, but each year, we are rewarded
through our interactions with such a group
of gifted and passionate young people
who bring their considerable talents to the
University of Michigan community</p>
