@baker47: Here is the link to the Hilltop program page (http://www.smu.edu/hnc) that should answer your questions.

In a nutshell, the Hilltop program is for first years only and the University honors program spans all four years. The University honors program is focuses primarily on academics, while the Hilltop program focuses on “Learn, Lead, and Give.” It is usually very doable to be a part of multiple scholars groups at SMU, so yes, you can interview for Hunt if you are invited to do so, and if you are accepted you could choose to do both Hunt and Hilltop. If you like the academic portion of your Hilltop program experience freshman year, then you could apply to join the Universities honors program (if you haven’t already been invited to join).

Hope that helps!
