OP, the students still need to apply to HC. It is an automatic acceptance with the GPA and standardized testing stats.

As mom2ck said, there are some highly competitive specific HC programs at UA - CBHP and UFE, and then HC programs that take more students like Emerging Scholars (can get into research as a freshman) and the STEM MBA program - which my DD is in. All 4 of these HC programs are in addition to HC program.

HC gives priority class registration, which is great. For second semester, when registration opened for DD, her #1 schedule pick was accepted in seconds. Ditto for her 3rd, fall term 2015 schedule.

At UA, these HC programs give students the best of both worlds, with opportunities a large school can provide while also having tailored experiences.
