[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's a lot to like about Honors programs. [b]In my view, it allows big state colleges to compete with the offering of private colleges (smaller classes, easier registration, specialized classes, advising, mentorship with professors) while still offering the advantages of a large research university (research opportunities).[/b][/quote] This is what schools want you to believe. In large research Unis, however, this is really hard to implement due to lack of funding (in most cases). Schools may offer honors seminars and such but most of the courses you need for your degree are outside of "honors" program. [/quote] That’s a big generalization. You really have to research individual programs. Some well known ones: Clemson’s Calhoun, ASU’s Barrett, UMD, VaTech.[/quote]
