@hereiamwhee lmao i just made an ig for this, its launchx.vivian
Hi! is there anyone who will be going to Cambridge/Boston location. Is there any common ig group or something where all the peeps are connected???
@TheKops
I read on their website that finaid is only offered to US-based students, so how did you apply for it?
I’m also going to the NorthWestern session, is there already a group chat created? My username is fuelvin for both Instagram and Snapchat.
@rosiejojo126 This year somehow they decided to give aid to international students 
I got an email early February stating this wonderful information. You can try to check your emails or the LaunchX website (not sure if they have updated on their website tho)
Hey anybody seriously worried that they might cancel the program? :neutral: I mean the Covid19 seems to be getting worse in the US…
I think they might cancel it but idk
I got accepted into UMICH session 1 hmu to start or be part of a group chat
I really wanted to go to the program at UPenn, do they place you based on ability of pure luck. I wanted to know where you guys got accepted and extracurriculars that go you in along with stats
Most likely they are getting cancelled unless they can figure out an online system. Then the question arises is it worth it
All classes at UMichigan have moved online and college students from dorms were sent home. Commencement has been cancelled. They are not taking any chances.
Colleges will be under pressure with many other issues over the summer than having to manage 3rd party summer programs and dorms/housing
California has gone into a lockdown now. If you are international student good luck getting into US. I don’t see it happening as the virus spreads across US
@Estebanurbina1 yah, I really don’t know if they’ll have the program anymore, RSI already got canceled and Uchicago canceled everything till September. However, Malaria and HIV meds have been shown to “cure” corona so if they can develop a dampener or vaccine within the next month or two we might still have the program, but they’ll probably cancel before then.
Also about location stuff, I know a part of it is based on your characteristics and they try to put you in a location where other people are like-minded and work well with you, but they sometimes let you switch because of dates and stuff. Like I got into the Upenn location originally but they let me switch to Umich session 2 because the dates for Upenn didn’t work well for me. Anyway, most people said their experiences and resources were usually the same even though they’re different locations.
@Shahneil26 Do you have an instagram? I don’t know how to PM someone on college confidential, so if you know how please PM me that or just put it in the thread (if you are comfortable with this)!
Hello all
Going through the thread I don’t see many people accepted to the Cambridge location? We should make a Discord group for the few that are going (I’m accepted too I’m so excited!!)
I have some questions. As I am an international student & a freshman, could someone tell me how many of each kind there usually are? (somebody before on this thread said 1-5 freshmen, really?!!)
Also is it indicative of something if they decided to assign me the Cambridge location, since people told me it is considered the best?
Lastly how many students are usually admitted to all sessions combined? Also how much is the nonrefundable fee usually? rn I have full finaid
@alanturing42 Hey, I’m also an international student. It seems like foreigners cannot get visas to the US soon. Is this the case for you? If so have you paid the 3k deposit? Coz well, you know, it may not be refundable and you may not get the visas to the US to attend the program in the worst scenario.
@Estebanurbina1 Yeah we have a group chat gimme your insta
@stemoctober source for them opening up financial aid to international applicants? I’m an international applicant and I haven’t read anything of the sort.
I thought there was no aid for internationals?
I’m seriously concerned about whether they cancel, and even if they don’t, all of the traveling…
I got accepted into Northwestern! Can somebody add me into the group chat??
I am going to Cambridge. Please send me info for the group chat. Thanks.
