On average, what are the stats required for an incoming freshmen to the honors program? Am I on the right track? And do incoming freshmen have to submit a separate application for the honors program or are they automatically considered?

My stats:
SAT: 2020 superscored - 690w/670m/660cr
ACT: Haven’t taken yet
GPA: around 3.5 UW 3.8W

EC’s are decent at best (~300 hours of volunteering at hospital, food drives, nursing home, etc.) and recommendations/essay should be okay

Also would these stats be good enough to get some money? I’m looking to apply early action to the college of engineering and I plan on visiting the school over my spring break to show interest.

I’m worried that my GPA is too low for the honors program. I also hope to get my superscored SAT up to at least 2050-2080 when I retake in June.

Thanks.
