[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For UMD CS, just doing the basic is enough Good grade and test score, take AP CS, calc BC Nothing over the top needed. DD was offered merit (5k every year + honors college) with just the above [/quote] Is merit something the kid has to apply for like a scholarship or is that different? Do HS counselors guide you regarding the available opportunities?[/quote] It's automatic from the university. https://honors.umd.edu/prospective-students/admissions-process/first-year/ But there are other (usually small) non-university sponsored scholarships that are not automatic. UMD HS Math Contest is one that is from the University but not part of admissions. It gives out 3 full scholarships each year (almost all of which are declined by the student, because the winners don't go to UMD.)[/quote]
