Applying to NCSU Honors program

So i am applying to NCSU Regular Decision , and there is a question about joining a Honors Society in NCSU and they require a 600 word essay , if i select that i do not want to join Honors Society at NCSU, will it decrease my chance of getting in ?

highly unlikely

so no , right ? it wont affect

right?

Are you talking about the University Honors Program?

If there’s an optional group and optional essay (required to apply to the group), it should not impact admissions…no.

Likely only a small % of students are even involved.

What’s the question say word for word.

My son got into NC State from OOS and I don’t recall any Honors there he applied for.

ah alright , thank you so much

It won’t but if you have a decent profile and could be selected it’d add a lot to your experience.
Check the CDS to see if they consider “interest” : since you’re applying RD and doing the extra essay could signify interest (since you no monger can apply Priority). If interest doesn’t matter and you don’t care about the potential perks/honors experience, don’t do it.
Other ways to demonstrate interest is to join their mailing list and visit campus.
