Honors programs and colleges--What are they, and how can we evaluate them?
Description
(Want to queue to a topic of choice? Go to "chapters.") We hear a lot about honors programs at large public universities, but often not until the end of the application process. What should a family look for when evaluating whether or not an honors program should be part of the student's college forecast?
Our guest on this episode Is John Willingham, author of Inside Honors: Ratings and Reviews of 40 Public University Honors Programs. The fifth edition of Inside Honors, released In late September, is packed with enough data and meaningful insights that students and parents can make good, informed decisions.
John's scholarship In this area is unmatched, and we were thrilled to have him on the show. Check out his website, too!
