One Saturday each February, Millikin University interviews candidates for four full-tuition scholarships. For the last two years we have offered a Friday overnight stay in the Honors LLC. Compared with the number of students who do not participate in the overnight, a significantly higher percentage of these guests enrolled in honors in both years.
