<p>After being rejected from SHARP and my governors school app not looking so good, I was wondering if there are still any summer programs that I can still apply for.</p>

<p>you should search around, qs like this have been asked before. </p>
<p>i know there's something in texas....meset or something? google it. </p>
<p>there's also ctd at northwestern, you can take high school courses in 3 weeks and get credit for them. dunno if it's your cup of tea: go to <a href="http://www.ctd.northwestern.edu%5B/url%5D">www.ctd.northwestern.edu</a> and click on summer programs</p>
<p>Almost every college and university has summer programs, depending on how much $$$ your family is willing to pay. Are there any colleges that you are particularly interested in? Check their website for summer programs, hs internships, etc. </p>
<p>Or just stay near home and find a community service project at a hospital, library, homeless shelter or elsewhere.</p>
<p>Stanford Summer College, but its $$$</p>
<p>the meset apps were due a while back. Stanford summer college and ctd look okay, but id rather do something just for math, science, or computers if you know any. But thx for the help!</p>
<p>EPGY at stanford is pretty nice for specifics:
<a href="http://epgy.stanford.edu/summer/courseofferings.html%5B/url%5D">http://epgy.stanford.edu/summer/courseofferings.html</a>
Its pretty well known, and not so much money (of course not as long) as Summer College.</p>
<p>yeah that one im already applying for. Do you think ill be fine with just a rec from my comp programming and chem/forensic science teacher or should i get a 3rd from my math teacher since ill be applying for the math courses too? Im just tired of asking all my teachers for recs lol</p>
<p>I dont know when the Summer@Brown apps are due, but I did it last year, and it was awesome.</p>
<p>Uh, it depends. You didnt make it really clear but its ok. Just have letters of rec for each subject you're applying t.o. Don't worry it isn't terribly hard to get into ( I got into Expository Writing last summer), but just make sure you spend quality time on the app so that it will reflect you.</p>
<p>will do. Thx for the help! ;)</p>
<p>UFlorida SSTP - deadline APril 28th.</p>
<p>oohh that looks like something i might be interested in</p>
<p>Mathcamp - deadling Apr 27</p>
<p>This is too late if you decided not to apply for UF-SSTP, but if you did apply and got in, I would really encourage you to go. I did SSTP in 2003 and it was the best 7 weeks of my life. I met some really incredible people who I am still best friends with, and the lab experience was much more than I could ever get from anything in my hometown. I wouldn't trade that summer for anything, and it has paid off as far as college goes - I was offered a $10k research stipend at Tufts University because of my research experience in high school (through SSTP), and I have also been offered admission to a few unique research programs at some of the other schools I applied to. Good luck and feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions - <a href="mailto:adart3987@yahoo.com">adart3987@yahoo.com</a></p>
