[quote=Anonymous]They just decide. You get an invite or you don't, nothing indicated on the student end in the application.

For Honors the acceptance letter reads:
"You should be especially proud of your invitation to the Honors College, a community which attracts some
of the country’s—and world’s—most brilliant minds. The Honors College combines the personal attention
and class size of a small college with the diversity and opportunity of a large research university. Students
who are in the Honors College will be placed in one of its eight unique living-learning programs. To respond
to your Honors College invitation and indicate your program preferences please complete the Honors
College Program Preference Form within your Terps Application Portal (TAP) no later than February 19,
2025. You will receive additional information about the Honors College soon."

You respond by choosing your first-choice program, no application per se. I think you're also asked for an alternate, which could be "University Honors." Not a whole lot of info provided by the university on how or when these determinations are made. But everyone in Honors will get into one of the eight LLCs.

I figured out which dorm my kid would get into for their first choice (thank you, Reddit) and it was ...not great. Maybe some LLCs have good housing, but this was standard, old, shoebox dorm room (Life Sciences).

Outside of Honors, the other LLCs are straightforward, no sub-categories.
