Honors vs Scholars

Denton (where most honors kids stay first year) has nicer lounges (air conditioning, and a great retreat during the hot months). The rooms have no air conditioning, which doesn’t matter after the first three weeks or so, decent heating, and minimal problems. Freshmen housing isn’t the best. It’s just something you get over.

As for being invited to both. I don’t think that happens anymore and if it does, it’s usually a mistake (I had a friend who went through this and it turns out she was just invited to scholars).

I’ve never heard of someone being invited to honors and switching to scholars. But I guess you could…?

And I have to disagree with the above post because south campus suites have carpeting and air conditioning (at least those on the quad) and a better proximity to route one. The South Campus diner is supposedly better (I mean…they have a tv…?). The only exception to this will be Oakland Hall, when its finished (Fall 2011). North Campus is far from everything (especially Denton)
