[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]4.9/1530 - Spring admission and Freshman connection. In state. [/quote] WOW! I am a high school teacher and their admissions decisions truly baffle me. I had one last year get the full ride Banneker Key, and frankly, I didn't really think she should have been admitted. I wrote a nice letter about how she was hard-working and sweet, but to anyone with a brain reading that letter, they would understand that she was not that smart and not a top performer. Other kids who were much stronger students, with high test scores, lots more strong AP scores and equal extracurriculars didn't even get into the Honors College. I really don't understand what their mindset is. They are not a SLAC and the mix in the class isn't as important as strong academic performance.[/quote] I think major plays a role in honors selection [/quote] DEI does as well. [/quote]
