Students will qualify if they:
_Have an advanced or honors high school diploma, as offered in at least 19 states.
_Completed the courses of the State Scholars Initiative, a congressionally backed program. It requires students to take four years of English, three years of math, three years of lab science, three and a half years of social studies, and two years of a language other than English. Fourteen states have the program now, and eight more are starting soon.
_Finished a set of courses "similar" to the State Scholars curriculum.
_Taken at least two Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate courses and passed the tests in both subjects.

YESSSSSSS! I'm amazed America actually wants their children to succeed - you could have fooled me w/how weak the support is for a real education system. People should be held to standards if they want to acheive a certain 'level'.
