Hi has anyone done this program in the best?
My friend has and he said it was amazing. Has anyone received their notification if they’re in or not?
I know in the FAQs HSF stated that they will get back to us mid-February but I haven’t got anything yet only an email saying that we will receive our notifications in the future… I don’t know why but it makes me a bit anxious.
Hi guys I got an email saying that I was waitlisted to the U Chicago program today.
@ISawKanyeLive have you heard back?
@apples1439 Actually I have. I applied and got accepted to the UChicago one.
I just got my acceptance letter for the USC location! I hope y’all get in.
@ISawKanyeLive @uzivin21 do you guys mind sharing your stats?

Did anyone else get accepted and is going to the USC one?
I got accepted into the USC one and they called my guardians to confirm my placement I guess but I haven’t heard back from them at all. They said something about sending the itinerary in late April.
@zaidaim I got the email too. Don’t sweat it, when they were sending out the decisions they sent them out on the 26th of February I believe. I look forward to meeting you at USC!
