<p>One thing I’ve learned as a student at USF is that there are written in black and white rules and policies, and there are unwritten rules. I’m sure it is the same at any other college too. I have petitioned successfully numerous times with USF deans for rule bending and variances from written rules and policies at USF-- why can’t Alex23’s daughter petition for admission to USF’s Honors College hacker4life? Who should she contact at the USF Honors College? I’d ask someone at the Honors College to review A23’s daughter’s file–I’d maybe argue that the high school she attended was academically competitive and graded harder than other high schools thus contributing to A23’s GPA just a little below Honors college admission GPA threshold/guideline. The request doesn’t have to be a full blown petition to Dean Silverman, others in the Honors College have the authority to reconsider and admit A23’s daughter to the Honors College. Can’t hurt to make request and shouldn’t take Honors College long for a reevaluation decision.</p>
