@pilot2012 thank you for your comment and insight. And yes, he did apply for Schreyers too and yes some of those essays can be recycled to modify the questions… I think it’s the recommendation letters that he’s hesitant to request on such short notice since the application is due Monday at 5pm with all components complete. Definitely no monetary advantage and not sure about the early enroll classes. Other than the link you provided and what the website says, there’s not much info on the program. Think Sapphire student might live in North housing and looks like a business club who also participates in THON etc based on their twitter. I am loosing the battle in trying to convince him to apply at this point since he’s not even 100% sure he will attend PSU. Hearing from a student like you said can help the cause perhaps. Thanks again
