High School Honors Science Program at Michigan State ( HSHSP )

@seal16, did the program specify as to what date she has to commit by?

@hk9928 Must be received no later than Friday, April 24.

I was accepted as well.

I applied! but no response yet…

When will they finish sending the responses by? Also, which is more prestigious NIH SIP or HSHSP?

@ultimate314 I would say NIH SIP, but I think it depends on who you ask

I have no idea but I recalled a recent thread about ranking the summer research programs. I have no idea whether this is accurate though these are all pretty well regarded programs so for what it is worth: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/summer-programs/1747310-updated-ranking-of-top-summer-research-programs.html#latest The fact that NIH is two above HSHSP seems pretty insignificant. They are both listed in the top 10 (at least in that person’s view). But I feel like these two programs will be very different experiences outside of the actual labs. HSHSP is much smaller and you’re all living together on a college campus. NIH is bigger. The internship program includes college students as well as high school students and everyone is commuting (unless I am mistaken).

Any alumna on this board? How was the quality of research in non-biology related fields like physics, engineering, etc?

rejected today! :frowning:
good luck to everyone else :slight_smile:

Accepted today!

@woohoo98 Congrats! Anyone created a FB page yet?

I wish they would just release admissions to everyone at the same time lol…still waiting…

@hk9928 Same… I just wanna know oy

Dr. Richmond is saving the best for last? Haha, I’m still waiting also, but keep your hopes up guys.

I just got an email saying to read an attached letter but no letter was attached, so I’m guessing that’s bad news oh well

@schakrab What was the subject line of this email? My D’s email had HSHSP Acceptance in the subject line. No need to Lose Hope Yet.

said 2015 HSHSP so I’m fairly sure I didn’t get in

if anyone’s curious, you can pm me for what the rejection letter looks likes since I don’t think links work?
but my subject line was also 2015 HSHSP…

Alternate!

Does anyone know when’s the latest they’ll announce admissions?
