<p>I know of these programs:</p>
<ul>
<li>Davidson THINK Institute</li>
<li>Summer@Brown</li>
<li>CTY</li>
<li>TIP</li>
<li>Northwestern's program</li>
</ul>
<p>Are there any other SELECTIVE summer programs for rising 10th graders?</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>I dont think summer@brown is for rising sophomores. I went this year and it was only jumiors and seniors.</p>
<p>Hi, mj93, </p>
<p>Check this Web posting </p>
<p><a href="http://www.mcgt.net/coming_up.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.mcgt.net/coming_up.html</a> </p>
<p>for a talk in February about summer programs at a location in Minnesota.</p>
<p>Since you are female, there is one program that I know about if you will be 15 before the summer, Girls on Ice:</p>
<p>It looks like a wonderful experience combining science and mountaineering. However, one caution, when my D applied two years ago they got so many applications that they decided to select the participants via a lottery rather than by some set of selection criteria. The application requires essays and letters of recommendation, in my opinion that's a lot of work to end up in a luck of the draw type of selection. You might want to call up the contact given on the website to see what their current selection process is.</p>
<p>I know of three competitive programs for after sophomore year: Cornell's Nanobiotechnology Internships, NIH Internships and Texas Tech's Clarks Scholars.</p>
<p>MJ582: I applied to summer@brown for a mini course.</p>
<p>It says on the site that all high school students may apply.</p>
<p>I'd do summer@brown if I were youu.</p>
<p>(I'm a freshman right now)</p>
<p>A lot of the math summer camps accept rising sophomores.</p>
<p>I'm applying to summer@brown for a minicourse, too! :)</p>
<p>There's also Andover Summer Session and Exeter Summer School. They're not exactly selective, but all the kids I met were really smart. People do get rejected, though. I mean, not a lot of dumb kids would want to spend 5 weeks taking two, 2 hour classes everyday, with 3+ hours of homework each night.</p>
<p>do summer@brown w/ me and jonathan. =]</p>
<p>I"m applying for Intro to Financial Markets.</p>
<p>But that's only cuz I can only stay for a week. Bummerr. Also look into the Cornell Summer Sessioin thingg. It says it's for Sophmores, Juniors and Seniors. I'm assuming it means incoming.</p>
<p>my bad. I thought you were applying to the seven week program.</p>
<p>Okay, thanks for the info. I've decided to apply to the Student Conservation Association and Duke TIP.</p>
