CDC Disease Detectives Camp: Is it a prestigious/selective program.

Who applied to this camp for high school students. I heard that last year 615 students applied and they chose 30 students for the two 5-day camps and 24 students for the two 2-day camps. It has two short answers and three essays. It doesn’t take into consideration GPA/ACT. I am very genuinely interested in attending this program and at the same time, I want to know if it’s worth mentioning on college apps. Also, what is the chance of summer programs such as these happening with the ongoing coronavirus situation?

Hi! I am applying this year (2021) and was wondering if you were able to participate in this program. If so, how was the experience? What was the application process like for you?

Hey there,
I was wondering if you heard any updates about this? I got in and was wondering the same thing.
