<p>So I'm looking into the following summer programs:
HSMC at University of Texas,
HCSSim at Hampshire College
MathILy at Bryn Mawr
Ross Mathematics at Ohio State
SAMS at Carnegie Mellon
PROMYS
SSTP at University of Iowa</p>
<p>They're all (except SAMS, which is free but not quite the type of program I was looking for) quite expensive, though each offers financial aid. The only way I would be allowed to go is if it were relatively inexpensive. Relative to perhaps NYLC, which my brother attended. The issue is that my family would be capable of paying but perhaps unwilling due to the price.
Is there any possibility I would receive financial aid? Or do any of you have fundraising ideas?
Also, most of these programs seem to be well regarded and not considered money making. The only two I'm worried about are MathILy and SSTP. Does anyone know anything about them?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
