<p>Hello, this is my first post!</p>
<p>Which program would you recommend more: the Columbia Summer Program or the Harvard Secondary School Program? Which one is more academically challenging <a href="from%20what%20i've%20already%20read,%20for%20the%20most%20part%20neither">/B</a> and which one has a better **social life (this part is really important to me and guides my choice. </p>
<p>Thank you</p>
<p>it depends on which course ur applying to for both</p>
<p>I went to Harvard SSP this summer for the 2008 program.
I went for Session II and took "International Law"
It was a really good experience, and the social life was terrific!
If you are a rising senior, then you'll have no curfew.
If you are a rising junior, then you will have a curfew.
I was a rising junior and it seemed as if you got closer to people that way because you were forced to socialize with people from your dorm after curfew. The campus is really pretty, too.
I lived in Kirkland House this summer, which was by the Charles River, and since it was a junior dorm and away from all the other dorms, we had a really tight-knit community which was great.</p>
<p>The classes are a lot of work, well most of them at least.</p>
