Stacey, Linda, and I are delighted by their enthusiasm, energy, talent, and the many ways they are already participating in the LAH community. Keep in mind that the chosen students represent the enrolling freshman class.
LAH admits about students each year yielding roughly a 33 percent admissions rate. It's possible to craft your Honors essay to fit both programs. Here, it is okay to leave open the question of which program is your best fit.
For me, when I was applying, LAH appealed more because it was less structured and had fewer rigid requirements. Since Plan II is a major, there are required courses each year. I knew I only wanted to pursue studies in the Liberal Arts, so Plan II's multidisciplinary emphasis on both the arts and the sciences wasn't a good fit.
There is little information available publicly about how Engineering Honors admits their students or their admitted student profile. Some programs are more competitive than others, however, so what you select as your first choice will influence your regular admissions decision.
I provide Engineering applicant and admitted student admissions data in this video. Regardless of which program you wish to enroll, Engineering Honors admits students from all Engineering departments.
I've been told, but I don't have any links to support this observation, that their admissions process is largely driven by a student's class rank and test score. It is speculated a score of 21 or higher is a minimum requirement for admission. They do not require an expanded resume or a recommendation letter. Unlike other honors programs that begin their review process as they receive their applicants, I'm informed that Engineering Honors waits until the Office of Admissions makes their decisions.
Then, they select their honors students from the pool of admitted students. It also seems that, of the admitted Engineering honors students, the top third or quarter will also receive scholarships. Honors provides resources to supplement the Cockrell School's already extensive support services. Engineering Honors doesn't seem to place much or any emphasis on the Honors essay.
Communication Honors is the newest program. They just admitted their first class of students with Fall There is little information about how they admit their students. A high level of scholastic aptitude is beneficial, but far from the only trait that defines a Moody Honors student.
We look for applicants who are capable of critical and independent thinking, with intellectual curiosity, creativity, and a variety of experiences and backgrounds. Preference is given to freshmen applicants who select Moody College as their first choice in their admissions application. It's a small program so there are few spaces available.
Honors students are required to have a Communications major like Public Relations or Corporate Communications, so honors supplements your main area of study, There is a capstone project requirement for graduation. Moody Honors requires a short answer submission on the following topic in addition to the Why Honors short answer prompt. Discuss an example from history, current events, a book or film, or from your own life that supports this perspective.
Please limit your response to no more than words. This is undoubtedly a tricky prompt, and it's clear that the admissions committee put a lot of time and thought to crafting their question. It's critical that you submit a thoughtful response.
Considering their cohort is so small and space is limited, this essay will play a role in your decision. One way to approach this essay is to discuss an instance where you were involved in a conflict with a friend or group and how you resolved the issue through open and honest discussion. If there is a film, movie, or novel that you feel could answer the question, consider sharing. There is little information about either their admissions process or admitted student data.
I recall from my time at UT that some of these programs, especially Health Science and Dean Scholars, have the lowest admissions rates across the university. They are also the smallest honors programs. Considering that over twelve thousand students applied for the College of Natural Sciences in , you can imagine the selectivity of their process.
There are no secrets to success other than being extraordinarily talented and a little bit lucky. Like Business Honors, Natural Science Honors programs require an expanded resume and a recommendation letter from a math or science teacher. Fifteen are from schools smaller than Stacey, Linda, and I are delighted by their enthusiasm, energy, talent, and the many ways they are already participating in the LAH community.

Since Plan II is a major, there are required courses each year. I knew I only wanted to pursue studies in the Liberal Arts, so Plan II's multidisciplinary emphasis on both the arts and the sciences wasn't a good fit. All prospective LAH applicants must answer in words or less the following:. Martin Luther King Jr. Intelligence plus character — that is the goal of true education.
This is a very interesting topic and probably the trickiest and least obvious of the new ones. I like their bold invitation to discuss ethics and education in our contemporary world. Firstly, I suggest visiting with Dr. His words are as timely now as they were then. Consider this excerpt:. Education must also train one for quick, resolute and effective thinking. We are prone to let our mental life become invaded by legions of half truths, prejudices, and propaganda.
At this point, I often wonder whether or not education is fulfilling its purpose. A great majority of the so-called educated people do not think logically and scientifically. Even the press, the classroom, the platform, and the pulpit in many instances do not give us objective and unbiased truths. To save man from the morass of propaganda, in my opinion, is one of the chief aims of education. Education must enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to discern the true from the false, the real from the unreal, and the facts from the fiction.
Liberal Arts Honors prides itself on critical thinking, weighing nuance, and communicating ideas clearly and freely. Learning how to learn and think takes precedence in my life over learning a trade or a specific skill that may not be applicable to other domains or might be redundant in our rapidly evolving global economy. Stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society.
The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals. LAH wants you to discuss honor, conscientiousness, media savvy, and finding common ground in our highly polarized society.
Who you are matters more than what you do. The danger with this prompt is to discuss abstractly, theoretically, or philosophically intelligence and character. Speak clearly and simply about a time your character was challenged or a time intellect or logic alone could not help you navigate an issue or crisis. There is little information available publicly about how Engineering Honors admits their students or their admitted student profile.
