HSHSP 2016

Does anyone know when the earliest they will start sending decisions?

Based on last two years dates, most likely they will start sending emails on Friday or Monday {next week). Good luck to all!

@srk2017 I hope they do come out next week, because the program announcement did say “by May 1”…Nevertheless, if I do get accepted, I’ll definitely have a tough decision to make between this and Garcia. But, not to count my chickens before they hatch.

Does anyone have an opinion on which is better: HSHSP or Governor’s School in Science (NJ)? I’m asking in terms of the quality of the research experience and the time spent doing hands-on work in the lab.

@BeastmodeHW - Did you get into HSHSP?

@srk2017 Yes, I got into HSHSP and Gov school, I just can’t decide which I should attend. Is HSHSP a selective/prestigious program?

HSHSP is supposed to be top 10 program. I don’t know anything about Gov School. When did you get the email from HSHSP?

Ok thanks for the info! I heard from them today at around 3pm.

Congratulations @BeastmodeHW! Did you get email or phone call?

Thanks! I got an email from Dr. Richmond.

@Isn’t NJ Governor’s school free?

Yes, but its also four weeks shorter and that’s not what i’m basing my decision on

yes, length of the program important get good results. What subject did you choose?

If I remember correctly I put down molecular biology and neuroscience as my interest areas on the application

Looks like no one else got any email.

I got my acceptance email two days ago. Couldn’t be more excited!!

Congratulations @artiebeag2! Which State are you from? What are your research preferences?
