<p>When do invites go out for Glynn Family Honors invitees?</p>
<p>I emailed the admissions office to ask that same question recently and they responded with “invitations will start going out at the end of this month (January)” So I’d expect them at the end of Jan, early Feb. Not quite sure what the criteria for getting invited is though…</p>
<p>From the program’s page:
"Profile of a Glynn Scholar</p>
<p>Class Rank: Top 1-2 % of high school class
SAT range (Math and Critical Reading): 1500-1600
ACT range (Combined): 34-36
“Numbers” alone do not qualify students to be designated a Glynn Scholar. Glynn Scholars also demonstrate extraordinary intellectual accomplishment and talent for doing challenging work in both the humanities and sciences.”</p>
<p>Got this info from here:

<p>But I realize it’s even more complicated than that. A big portion of their accepted applicants would probably be invited if that was all that went into it.</p>
<p>My son received his invite on Feb. 22nd last year. After you receive the invitation, you have to write an essay on why you would like to be in the program.</p>
<p>Do you guys mind posting if you get an invite? Just curious, I have the class rank (#2) but ACT and SAT are on the lower edges (34/1500). It’s good to know when the invites actually come out instead of all these vague ranges.</p>
<p>My D got her letter today</p>
<p>i got my invite letter yesterday, and am probably going to apply. does anybody know how many students are invited into this program?–is there a general acceptance rate for amount fo students admitted out of those who are invited?</p>
<p>My D got a letter, but thinks it’s aimed at Liberal Arts majors. Is this incorrect? She isn’t planning to apply and I wonder what she might miss out on. She majoring in Chemistry.</p>
<p>Debbie, my son is a chemistry major as well as a member of Glynn Family Honors and he LOVES the program! Honors Humanities Seminar and Honors Philosophy have been among his favorite classes so far. The professors and wonderful and the class material and discussions interesting and engaging. Students have to fulfill humanities requirements anyway, so she might as well do so with top-notch classes. She will also be able to enroll in an accelerated chemistry class specifically for honors students/intended majors. To top it off, she will be part of an instant social-group of students who share similar interests, as the program organizes gatherings and trips for its members. I strongly recommend that she consider the invitation very carefully. The program is actually aimed at students who are strong in both science and humanities. There are many science majors in the group. Check out the webpage [Glynn</a> Family Honors Program // University of Notre Dame](<a href=“http://glynnhonors.nd.edu/]Glynn”>http://glynnhonors.nd.edu/) and p’m me if you or she have further questions.</p>

<p>My son just got Glynn letter and is definitely a math/engineering guy, though also likes economics. Just wondering, what is the difference between the Glynn Family Honors program, and Reilly Scholar, and can one be both?</p>
<p>Congrats to all who have been invited. Are those who have been notified all early action applicants?</p>
<p>still haven’t gotten one…thinkin its not comin haha :(</p>
<p>if someone said they received theirs on feb 22. then its still not too late for me</p>
<p>I received my invitation late last week week. It was postmarked for February 15th. Does anyone know what % of the students invited to apply end up getting accepted?</p>
<p>The Glynn Family Honors Program is a collaboration between the College of Science and the College of Arts and Letters. It is strictly an honors program with no scholarship aid. However, it offers great seminars and classes with students who have been identified as some of the top applicants as well as funding for research. These students have been invited and made a conscious choice to apply to the program because they have a strong passion for learning and like to be challenged. </p>
<p>From what I can tell about the Reilly program, it is for dual degree Arts and Letters/Engineering students. Junior and Senior year scholarships may be available. You can search it on the ND website using “Reilly Scholars” .<br>
There was also the Reilly Visitation program for accepted students and I am not sure about the criteria for that.</p>
