Honors Scholar Program essay (500)

Please write a short essay 250-500 words to the following questions. Why do you wish to participate in a Great Books Program? What experiences prepare you to take command of your own education?

Editor's notes

• If you have a 3.6 to 4.0 GPA, a strong SAT or ACT score can raise your merit award by $2,000 a year. Below 3.6, scores don't change the amount, so test-optional costs you nothing there.
• Apply by Nov. 1 for Early Action. You get a guaranteed answer by Dec. 1 without committing, and nursing applicants face the same date.
