alright, so i just got to the part of the common application where you have to list any honors or awards. The problem is, I can’t think of one. Are there any really generic awards I can list just to avoid leaving the space completely blank? Or are there any honors that i could possibly be forgetting?
<p>CSF, NHS, RPI Medal? Those are all of my awards, least the ones I can remember. My school doesnt really give any out.</p>
<p>I’d suggest asking your Guidance Counselor. Maybe your school gives out special awards and she can somehow “suggest” you deserve them if you talk to her, if you know what I mean lol. </p>
<p>But if you’re part of any honor socities, put them down. Most people are in National Honor Society.</p>
<p>cool, i didn’t realize national honor society was an award. At least it won’t be blank anymore.</p>
<p>can we put ap scholar w/ distinction if we qualified for it, but havent recieved the paper awarding us yet?</p>
<p>are there any awards related to high scores on the SAT, SAT II’s or AP tests?</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>Yeah, those awards are called offers of admission letters.</p>
<p>What’s the difference between National Honor Society and CSF? CSF is what my school has, so I know nothing about the first…</p>
<p>what’s CSF?</p>
<p>I’m going to put this in this thread instead of starting a new one… what in the world is National Honor Roll? Is it legit? My parents just got a letter stating… ahem … “Congratulations! Because of Samantha’s outstanding academic performance and membership in Quill and Scroll Society, National Honor Roll has selected Samantha for induction into the Spring 2005 National Honor Roll.”</p>
<p>So, two questions:
What is it? Is it a scam like Who’s Who? They specifically say they don’t want money, though.</p>
<p>How am I inducted into the Spring 2005 Honor Roll when it’s already Summer 2005?</p>
<p>Awards can be anything. Don’t restrict yourself to awards given by your school - honor roll, Best French student, pink belt in karate, most improved blah, winner of an essay contest, third highest score in the school on X, AP scholar. (hint - ask your mother for ideas).</p>
<p>CSF is the California Scholarship Federation. It’s like an honor society club thing in schools statewide.</p>
