<p>Has anybody received anything?</p>
<p>No…</p>
<p>Do you think they will be able to send decisions today? My dad was telling me he strongly feels they would be able to finish today. LOL Who knows?</p>
<p>I emailed Dr. Richmond two days ago and they said by Friday for sure.</p>
<p>I emailed her on Monday. She said I would receive in next 48 hours. HOwever it is already 2*48 hours.</p>
<p>Do you think they’ll get back to us this weekend or wait until the week?</p>
<p>@DYSmom I picked microbiology and molecular biology</p>
<p>Probably wait until the week. This is very disappointing.</p>
<p>So do I @CyCyCyCy.</p>
<p>Fingers crossed for today</p>
<p>Accepted, good luck to all of those still waiting</p>
<p>Bingolover, were you an alternate, or were you straight accepted?</p>
<p>How selective is this program? How selective is it to be named an alternate?</p>
<p>^~10% acceptance rate.</p>
<p>I was an alternate</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>About what percentage are given alternate status? A lot/a little?</p>
<p>Has anyone not yet heard back from HSHSP?</p>
<p>The program has already been filled with 28 participants, according to the roster the director sent out.</p>
<p>It’s currently week four of HSHSP, and we’re all having a blast. If anyone’s curious, here’s a breakdown of the locations of current HSHSPers:</p>
<p>7: Michigan
3: California, New York
2: Illinois, Florida, Texas, Indiana
1: Virginia, North Dakota, Iowa, Hawaii, Arizona, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Puerto Rico</p>
<p>This is the first year that 30 participants were selected (usually 24-26 are chosen). Around 300 applied, so the acceptance rate was right around 10% (I imagine it will be the same or lower in future years.). </p>
<p>I highly recommend the program for students seriously interested in scientific research. Best of luck to next year’s applicants!</p>
<p>^what that guy said ;)</p>
