Not saying otherwise.
I’m simply noting - if they are not now - and no idea if they plan to be - they should ask if there’s an option to attend even if you’re not in Honors.
My guess is no but I don’t truly know - and they may accept non Honors kids as well (if the student doesn’t end up in Honors).
Just info gathering - to help them if the DC thing is even an input that would drive their decision (it may not be).
