<p>I agree with Piper. It is EXTREMELY difficult for international applicants to be accepted to MIT, fewer than 3% are. I’m not quite sure how you already know what you will be doing the next 4 summers, but best of luck to you with that. Keep up the good grades, participate in extracurricular activities that show your passion for physics and engineering. And hopefully in a few years, you’ll be back in the U.S. at MIT.</p>
