<p>My older daughter, now a senior Mech Eng. student, was in the Honors Housing her freshman year and loved it! Her stats were similar to your son’s stats except for the fact she went to a public Texas high school. Honors housing was where she made her friends and she felt very supported. Although A&M is a large university, she always told us the size didn’t hinder her. Advice would be, apply early in August!</p>
