[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC's experience this past Spring was less opaque than some of the others reported.

The acceptance to the honors program came along with the general acceptance letter.  The school then hosted a bunch of zooms and provided website information explaining each of the honors college options, and the information included the specific dorms affiliated with each honors programs.  They then had the students rank their preference for each of the honors programs and at some point well prior to May 1, they learned what program they got into.  To be clear: that process happens long before May 1, so you know before you commit (or don't) to U-MD which program you're in.  My recollection is that one or two of the honors programs competitive to get into (maybe the tech one?), but my DC put university honors as their first choice, so we didn't really learn about those.

My sense is that the process for those offered College Park scholars was similar.[/quote]

University Honors has the best dorms, good choice. But to answer OP more clearly, no one knows how the most in-demand LLCs are assigned. As with Honors, you either get in or you don't. University Honors seems fine for students who don't get into their top choice, is just not specialized in the same way. Which some kids, like PP's, prefer.[/quote]
