has anyone ever been? what is it like? do you have to be really smart to go? do a lot of people hook up? i know it has the nickname “sexplo”. also, i know it isn’t good for college apps but does anyone know why? i think it has to do with the price. thanks for the advice!!
i went the past two summers, and it was a really amazing experience. you do not have to be really smart to go (i think everyone gets in that applies? also it’s only “academic” in the way that there are classes). i guess you could say a lot of people hook up, but there’s no pressure to; i never did and very few of my friends did, but if you want to you’ll find an opportunity. i don’t think it’s good for college apps but i wouldn’t necessarily say it’s bad for college apps; i think a selective program would look better but it can’t hurt to put down.
