[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in an honors college at a state school. Perks:
[b]-Full ride + stipend. Tuition, room&bord, books, all paid for. My extra (previously earned) scholarship money went into my pocket for any additional living expenses. [/b]
-Priority registration for classes and dorms. This meant I lived in the brand new dorm in one of only 8 rooms campus wide that had a private bathroom, and I got first pick of classes. 
-Honors only classes. These were required and intended to create community with the other honors college students and to challenge us. 
-Senior presentation required for graduation. We had full latitude when selecting/creating our subjects/projects. Have us a chance to be in the academic spotlight.

I’d do it again if given the chance - I’m still in touch with most of the people in my honors college, it was a fantastic program. Truely enriched my college experience. [/quote]

All honors kids received that? [/quote]

In my school, yes. They wanted to keep the high achieving kids in state. [/quote]
