<p>Hey, what students have been accepted to/applied to Harvard SSP for 2009?
I guess this will be exactly like the similar threads.</p>
<p>i'm applying. even if i get in, i'm not sure i'll go.
what class are you taking?</p>
<p>Introduction to Philosophy
Deliquents, Criminals, Psychopaths and Terrorists</p>
<p>This is going to be amazing....</p>
<p>Are there any classes taught in the summer program that are actually real Harvard (term-time) classes?</p>
<p>Yes, they all are Harvard undergraduate-level classes. Students applying to H the next year can transfer the credits and Harvard College students can take those classes for 4 credits each. Although many teachers who teach in the program are from other universities, my first class on Globalization, is taught by a Harvard undergraduate professor in sociology and my other class is taught by a Harvard Medical School professor, who teaches both undergraduate and graduate courses in psychology. </p>
<p>So the answer is, yes.</p>
<p>Is it prestigious at all or just pay to get in? Or maybe if you get an A in the harder classes it'll look better than just getting an A in your standard community colleges.</p>
<p>It isn't that prestigious, but it is better than doing nothing during the summer and if you get an A in a harder class, it probably looks better than a community college and if you really shine, you could get a letter of recommendation for college, if you're a junior.</p>
<p>So in the end would taking Harvard SSP be more beneficial or researching at a science program?</p>
<p>Which science program?</p>
<p>Im going! im really excited.</p>
<p>im in Macroeconomics and Language and Culture</p>
<p>I’m Going taking intro bio</p>
<p>An A from Harvard will definitely be worth something because it shows colleges that you can handle college level classes.</p>
<p>Plus a recommendation from a professor is a pretty big hook if you can get one.</p>
<p>I’m going. I’m taking Law and Psychology and Reality, Desire, and the Epic Form: Homer, Dante, and Joyce both taught by Harvard professors.</p>
<p>I intend to apply SSP for this summer but the required TOEFL score is much more than I could do.So I had applied for SIEL (Secondary School English Language Program) and I got my acceptance nearly 2 weeks ago. Probably,I will go for it.Anyway,do you think that having a SIEL can waive the TOEFL requirement when I apply for SSP next summer ? Thanks a lot !</p>
<p>I told SSP that I’ve been studying in a bilingual schl for more than 11 yrs, and they waive the TOEFL requirement for me.
I am accepted too! chose intro philosophy and microeconomy…</p>
<p>I got accepted too! I want to take The Essay, and Law & Psychology. The credits for these courses can be transferred, right?</p>
<p>did u think that law and psychology was an easy course to ace ?</p>
