I was accepted to the BC Honors college and was wondering how the prestige of it compares to the ivies and elite liberal arts colleges like Pomona, Williams, etc. Will grad school admissions officers value BC honors as highly as these other places? Will going there significantly hinder my grad school opportunities?
@iak789 I would say that it helps, but not a lot. Academics are difficult anywhere. A person who is not in the honors but has a lot of ECs and has a high GPA will have a higher chance of getting into grad school than a person with a lower GPA at honors. BC is a prestigious institution and if you succeed there, you will have absolutely no problem getting into grad school.
