<p>Do any of you know if getting accepted into a competetive summer program will increase chances for admission?</p>
<p>Any personal experiences or info would be great!</p>
<p>Hm....no</p>
<p>No correlation at all. Unless it's some super intense, selective program.</p>
<p>Of the 15 or so kids who I went to Summer@Brown with last summer who applied to Brown only 3 got in. Of course, they're still going to Tufts, NYU, Georgetown, Colgate, etc.</p>
<p>But that sort of thing is probably self-selective.</p>
<p>Attending a summer program at a specific school does NOT increase your chances of admission to that school.</p>
<p>It seems RSI kids get to go wherever they want. According to one of last year's rickoids, everyone got into their first choice.</p>
<p>ehh i wouldnt think summer@brown would be good considering all can apply can get in</p>
<p>i would say somethin like Harvard SSP, cuz its a tough program</p>
<p>I did that last summer, and this summer im doing governor school which is mad hard to get into (100 kids per state)</p>
