Since most of honor students come in with 10 ~15 AP



My daughter is a sophomore at OSU. I was not aware of this. Where did you get this information?

My daughter has not had trouble getting the classes she wanted. Like rleffler’s son, my daughter did have an issue when two classes were offered at the same time, and they had only one section of each. Other than that, it has been smooth sailing as far as scheduling goes.



Per the honor web site, each honor student is encouraged/required to take 1 ~ 2 honor classes per quarter. What about the other 3 ~ 4 classes?



As I recall, honors students need to take 6 honors classes (total). For some reason, I was thinking it was required by the end of their sophomore year. Hmm. . . maybe I’m not remembering correctly.
Most students my daughter knows do not take 5 or 6 classes per quarter. I know this is the norm for those on a semester schedule. Thus far, my daughter has not taken more than 4 classes per quarter, especially because she has lots of lab classes (engineering major). Those labs add extra hours.

Honestly, I did not want my daughter to go to OSU because of the size. Being in the honors program helped make a large university a little bit smaller.
