<p>I didn't realize that so many great summer programs have such early deadlines!!
Most of the ones that I looked for (science researching programs) had their deadlines early Febuary or January.
I don't want to waste my summer and I want to do an intense researching program regarding chemistry (biochemistry)/ medical science.</p>
<p>I looked around tons of threads in this site,
and I made a list of programs that seemed interesting:
-High School Summer Science Research Program
-Clark Scholars Program
-High School Science Program (in Michigan)
-Secondary Student Training Program (SSTP)
-Student Science Training Program (SSTP)
-biotechnology summer camp in Stony Brook University
-Independent High School Research Program (well, I don't think this is exactly a program) in Stony Brook University
-UC Davis Young Scholars Program
-UCSB research mentorship
-Coriell Institute for Medical Research
-COSMOS
-Masonic Medical Research Lab
-governor's school (this seemed like a prestigious program--according to people here--what is it exactly??)</p>
<p>Anyways,
this is my list, and they all have later deadlines so I can still apply for them</p>
<p>I live in New York and I'm an international student (I don't have US citizenship or green card)--this pretty much narrowed my choices down alot.
I wanted to do somewhere near my home so I can commute and do other things too
but the ones that I searched for, their deadlines already passed, like the Simons Stony Brook Research program.</p>
<p>I was considering to find a research internship opportunity in Stony brook or Columbia Univeristy (I'm in Columbia Science honors Program now) but I just want to make sure that I have another internship/research opportunity if I don't find that opportunity.</p>
<p>Which ones from the list would you recommend?
Which ones are most prestigious and worth going to?</p>
