Full Tuition Plus Room & Board - At Expense of Social Life?

<p>My child interviewed. Odd situation b/c he didn’t apply (wants to go to med school). He told his interviewers he can’t commit to a PhD program.</p>

<p>I think you are wrong about the housing, but I could be too.
Dean williams indicated that scholars will be assigned to honors housing during the year. You will be assigned different housing in the summer (you need to move) because the honors dorms are unavailable in the summer. She expressed an interest in trying to get the honors housing “opened up” for the summer, but that might be hard.</p>

<p>Summer classes: There should only be two “serious” classes- Gen Chem and “a math”- courses that would require much preparation. The others are more informational classes like introduction to research. Not heavy classes at all. </p>

<p>Do not display personal information on this site even if you figure out how to do so.</p>

<p>You expressed an interest in the SHC. Both require a research thesis be written. This is really the time consuming exercise, but the thing that develops you the most. SHC requires a minimum number of honors classes. Millennium Scholars may be able to take honors classes if they want to, but not required to do so. Also, Millennium Scholars have guaranteed 5,000 financial support to continue their research over the summer so less time can be dedicated to it during the school year. Most SHC students don’t stay the summers and must complete the research during the year. So, there should be less stress as a Millennium Scholar.</p>

<p>If you have any questions contact ECoS. If I were you, I’d accept especially since you were not admitted into SHC. Millennium program has some of the perks as the SHC, but not all.</p>
