Garcia Summer Research 2018

@IcyHurricane I believe you can work remotely on the projects and you can submit the group research to competitions and share the credit together. I know that it has been done before, I just don’t know how they did it.

Does anyone know when we will hear about admissions?

@erwang01 from my understanding, applicants receive a confirmation email in the first week of March and an acceptance/rejection/waitlist email in the last week of March

I haven’t gotten a confirmation email yet… has anyone else?

nope :frowning: i sent in my official transcript later, do you think they care (i sent in my unofficial one with a note on time)

I haven’t received a confirmation either. I feel like they should’ve been out already right?

^has anyone gotten a confirmation??

I received a confirmation email today at 6:13 PM EST, although my friend who also applied hasn’t. They might be sending out confirmations in waves.

Did anyone not receive a confirmation email yet??

@hopeful310 I haven’t seen an email yet. Have you?

Edit: Actually I did receive an email today. It showed up in my junk folder though.

I received a confirmation, but it may have been because I e-mailed them first.

whats the class size? thanks :slight_smile:

@umendel on the website the high school class last summer was just over 80 I believe

80 because the yield rate last summer was above estimation. Resources were stretched a little thin. I believe they are cutting down the size this summer. The size 2 summers ago was around 66 so you should expect something around that.

has anyone else still not receive a confirmation email?

I didn’t receive a confirmation letter yet

@gashina @purplehawk The confirmation email showed up in my Spam folder, so check that.

Has anyone heard back (acceptance, rejection, etc)?? Does anyone know when the results will come out?

It should be coming out on the 29th @collegehelp1010

waitlisted…

anyone else??
