<p>I'm applying to
- HSHSP
- TASP
- NIH
- Harvard SSP as a back-up</p>
<p>MITES
LEAD
YESS- maybe
SAMS- maybe</p>
<p>Carnegie Mellon SAMS and AP-EA
Caltech YESS
Air Force Summer Seminar</p>
<p>MITES
RSI
SAMS
ASSIP in my area…</p>
<p>I can’t afford the other ones… even with scholarships.</p>
<p>Damn. Man, i’m just chilling during the summer. Have fun with whatever you’re doing.</p>
<p>none im doing research with my mentor at his lab</p>
<p>why would i tell you then my chances of getting it would decrease and the prestige would be lowered !!!</p>
<p>-TASP
-Bank of America Student Leaders
-Clark Scholars
-Notre Dame’s Global Issues Seminar
-If nominated, Boy’s State
-Harvey Mudd’s FAST Program (technically, it’s in February 2011, so I guess it really isn’t a summer program)</p>
<p>How prestigious is TASP on college apps? Comparable to RSI?</p>
<p>Probably RSI and TASP (I have diverse interests)</p>
<p>PAVE @ Vanderbilt
my state’s Governor’s school
…yea that’s about it.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Well, TASP only accepts 64 people. IDK about RSI though. Does RSI/MITES require prior research experience?</p>
<p>RSI expects research potential.</p>
<p>Future leaders in math and science related fields.
Best of the best for RSI, which means it’s de facto required.</p>
<p>MITES… not necessary.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Well, those who attend TASP tend to end up at top-tier universities. But it’s more correlation than causation, from what I can tell. If you’re accepted into the program, you’re probably already amazing enough to be accepted into top-tier universities in the first place.</p>
<p>RSI doesn’t require prior research experience, but it is certainly helpful for getting admitted to the program, since the whole thing is one big research project. I just know this because my friend went there but didn’t have prior research experience beforehand.</p>
<p>Probably boys’ state, Yale and/or Princeton football camp and maybe the northwestern, Uchicago and/or Michigan State camp.</p>
<p>RSI
SSP
UIowa SSTP
UF SSTP
Mathcamp
(possibly) Rutgers YSP (it’s for discrete math)
AMSP if I can’t get into any of the above (I went this year, so I’m automatically admitted)</p>
<p>What are some of these abreviations?
like SSTP? or AMSP? or YESS, SAMS,ASSIP? and is mites for asians?</p>
<p>Google is your friend.</p>
<p>(Err, the AMSP I’m referring to is AwesomeMath Summer Program.</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure MITES is for everyone, though it’s focused on underrepresented minorities (i.e. not a lot of Asians).</p>
<p>Bank of America Student Leaders
Congressional Page Program(still pending)
Notre Dame Seminar for African Americans
Girls State
TASP(maybe…)</p>
