I was taking a break from this thread after my daughter was accepted in the ea first wave with a trustees scholarship. I am hoping she is offered a spot in the honors program because I think that will bump up UNH even more over the other more expensive private schools where she has applied.
Based on previous posts, it seemed honors invites might be coming out in mid-January. However, I just saw in the thread that a couple students have already been offered spots (congrats!) Thoughts on if that first wave cut for honors is complete? Facts and speculation are all welcome! 
I have no direct knowledge, so this is speculation, but I would imagine that they will continue rolling them out, so donāt lose hope. Additionally, I would also recommend not taking ānoā for an answer and pressuring them a little. You need to make sure this is #1 choice before taking this step however.

On this message board last school year, a number of applicants accepted on 12/20 heard about Honors around January 9th (before the next wave of EA announcements). I would second the suggestion of being proactive if you donāt hear anything by January 10th.

Daughter just received official admissions packet in the mail. It is very nicely done. Package of nicely printed postcards emphasizing Internships, student clubs, study abroad, residence halls/student life, athletics, and academics. Very nicely done. UNH seems to be really emphasizing the schools location in particular.

That sounds so fun to receive in the mail! I love that colleges still send snail mail!
Hoping one comes for my daughter soon as well (she was accepted last month)!

Our packet of printed postcards came in todayās mail- I agree very well done and fun to receive!
My daughter still hasnāt heard about Honors so not sure if she should just assume she didnāt get in (itās been about 3 weeks) or if she should email to ask if they are still releasing those decisions?
My son also received his packet today via mail. The accompanying letter mentioned the merit award as well as admission to the Honors College. Last year, notification for honors happened a few weeks after the first wave of EA. I would doubt that UNH has filled out its Fall 2024 Honors College class. I encourage your daughter to reach out and express her interest, particularly if she received a strong merit award.

Thank you - I will encourage her to send the email to inquire about Honors.
She received the 14k merit in the initial acceptance email.
I donāt think sheād go to UNH if she werenāt in Honors to be honest so Iād love to see her express interest instead of being stubborn and assuming she just didnāt get in.
