Q
Will Honors really help me get into grad school?
Answer(s)

Yes! Graduating with Honors demonstrates that you have invested in your undergraduate education and your Senior Honors Project is a way to show your ability for independent work and devising your own research project. Graduate schools often award funding first to students who have graduated from Honors programs.
