Which honors program/college is she going to apply for at UT? If her focus is Premed, any of the honors programs at the College of Natural Sciences might be a good fit. https://admissions.utexas.edu/explore/freshman-honors Plan II may also be an option. If she hasn’t done so, she needs to research the various programs and apply asap. While she may be auto admit, there is no guarantee of college or program. Based on the info you shared, I think she has a good shot at any one of them. UT also allows you to apply to multiple honors programs.

There are a variety of scholarships. The full ride scholarship is the 40 Acres Scholars. She needs to apply for that asap as well. There are a variety of other merit type scholarships that are listed out for you as you fill out the general application. There are also college and departmental merit scholarships.

I think you otherwise have a good list, especially if your daughter is not interested in HYPSM, etc… Has she considered a LAC, or is she pretty well set on a research university?
