Can Converse II students (students over the age of 24) join the Honors Program?
Converse II students who do well once they have begun their studies at Converse are considered for admittance to the Honors Program; students must earn at least a 3.5 GPA after taking 12 hours at Converse to be invited to apply. Once a Converse II student enrolls, she is required to complete an application, request a letter of recommendation from a full-time professor at Converse, and submit a graded sample of 2-3 pages of her writing. If her application is accepted, she may immediately begin participating in honors extracurricular activities and may take honors courses starting the next term. Converse II students who apply need to recognize that Honors Program courses are not offered in the evenings.
