Iowa SSTP 13

<p>Yup…Why no other people respond?
:)</p>

<p>Hi guys! I’m from Texas yee dawg ;D sorry for the late reply ^^ I hope more people find this site because it’d be pretty nice to get to know everyone briefly before camp starts :)</p>

<p>helloo! yay grand total of 3 people! if you guys want, we could always get to know each other, just us 3 musketeers (haha i’m funny.) what topic did you get assigned to? i got bio :slight_smile: first choice woohoo</p>

<p>Guess I’m filling out my forms tomorrow, then. Placed in chemical engineering</p>

<p>I’m with Dr. Tivanski, biochem/ chemistry stuffs :)</p>

<p>She didn’t give me an extension.</p>

<p>got waitlisted…does anyone know when they will notify us if there are spots or if we are rejected?</p>

<p>No clue. Sorry. But I’m sure some people will decline…this isn’t an RSI or HSHSP or SIMONS. Good Luck!</p>

<p>Wait what time are we supposed to arrive? July 16th at 8AM or 12PM or 1PM? And I though the program was supposed to have someone there already to take us to campus? So I guess they aren’t doing it…extra $50 (Is this for round trip?). Also, where will the shuttle take us? Isn’t there an opening ceremony? Why do I have so many questions suddenly?</p>

<p>I Hope we get a packet in the mail.</p>

<p>LOL i wonder if the coordinators can see this thread…it would help if they also joined! :)</p>

<p>let’s see what answers i can dig up online:</p>

<p>i’m assuming on the 16th, and whenever your flight gets there i suppose
i think the extra $50 is for round-trip
i guess the shuttle will take us to where we’re supposed to be ._. wherever that is. maybe there’ll be someone on the shuttle to make sure we don’t get shipped off to nowhere
yup there’s an opening ceremony</p>

<p>guess what i found after typing all that!

<p>Well then. LOL</p>

<p>I messaged them about the plane flights and they said that "The airport shuttle schedule is planned around the itineraries we receive. The closing ceremony for SSTP will be around dinner time. If you can stay for that, that would be great. However, if you cannot, we will still arrange to bring you to the airport. "
I think they’re pretty flexible with the arrivals and departures so that’s nice! (:</p>

<p>Hey i just found this post! I got accepted into the program too(:
is there a facebook group for this yet?</p>

<p>Hi!! :smiley: yay more peoplee what subject did you get placed in?</p>

<p>helloo :slight_smile:
there isn’t a facebook group yet because, well, not that many people have started chipping into this conversation yet. if you guys want to, we can…we have what, 4 people? 5 if you include Trilliums (whose mom was the one that contributed, so…)</p>

<p>What on earth were you doing up at 3:06 AM???</p>

<p>Hello Everyone!!
I have accepted to IOWA sstp 2013 too. I have some questions, if anyone here is kind enough to answer, please?.. Is this program really selective, i mean do you have any idea how many applications were there this year. How is this going to help me in my college applications? Do we get our own professors to guide us for the lab assignments? Trust me, its so confusing whether i should join this or not? It’s kind of expensive too.
P.S I am from Pakistan, Is there any Facebook page or group? :D</p>

Everyone please join this group :P</p>

<p>have been*</p>

<p>So…all I know is that the opening ceremony is June 17th, 4PM at a location tba. Excellent.</p>

<p>Has anyone found one way tickets to Cedar Rapids yet?</p>
