Difference between high school and college honors

"Being in the Honors Program in college will be more work." Not true. An Honors Program in college is meant to be a student-centered environment in which our faculty encourages you to develop your own ideas, think critically, emphasize diverse perspectives, and have greater interaction in the classroom.
