[quote=Anonymous]Would it be better to aim to be a "regular" student at the most competitive college you can get into (assuming it is otherwise a good fit, of course), or would it be better to be a big fish at a less competitive school where you are offered a spot in the honors program? Are these programs just a bargaining chip for schools to attract candidates who could go elsewhere, or are they legitimately a great educational experience? I am sure it varies school to school, but I am curious for any feedback, including about specific programs. Several of the schools the DC has visited have these programs (I think many of the VA state schools do, for example), and my own college did not. We don't know whether to factor that into the decision where to apply (DC is a junior, obviously). Thanks![/quote]
