<p>My S just accepted UConn Honors over BC and several good merit offers @ Brandeis, BU and GWU. He got merit aid at UConn as well, but he was greatly influenced by the apparent strength of the honors curricula over the other honors programs he was admitted to in the other schools, and a lot of perks that go along with the program from the Dorms, to preferential choice in class registration, to activities, special intern programs and advising. Lastly, he plans to apply what money he an save for Grad/Law school in 4 yrs.</p>
