Intro to Engineering Application

<p>Hey there -- I was hoping someone could answer a couple questions before I send off my app to the Intro to Engineering summer program.
<a href="http://iep.nd.edu/iepform.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://iep.nd.edu/iepform.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>My stats are pretty competitive...
4.65 GPA (w)
Rank 10/265
Both Physics and Chem
3 years of math (Junior year - Adv. Algebra, Adv. Geometry/Trig, Precalc....AP Calc next year -- all honors)</p>

<p>Does anyone know what exactly the admissions people are looking for in the "Why do you want to join IEP?" section? 2 or 3 sentences? Paragraph?</p>

<p>Have you or do you know anyone who has gone through this camp? How'd you/him/her like it? Will attending this make an impact on my application next year?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance for your help</p>

here's a link to the thread i started a while back.

<p>I'm planning on applying too... comparing the app to other engineering program apps, it doesn't seem that hard to get in. I'm not sure about the "why iep?" part, it doesn't sound like anything that calls for an attention-grabbing essay, just 1-2 paragraphs (thats what I'm thinking I'm going to do) about why I want to attend... I think a lot of people will want to go for the same reason, and I'm not sure that admission is so competitive that a unique statement is necessary. </p>

<p>does anyone know the application deadline? I cant find it on the site.</p>
