<p>Anyone applying this year? Anyone know anything cool about it? 5000 dollars it alot!</p>

2

<p>OR does anyone know of any other great business summer programs?</p>

3

<p>you might want to check your local colleges. They might be offering a business camp/course over the summer.</p>

<p>We have a program called Idaho Business Week and it's really great. I know Ohio has a similar business week program. I would have loved to do the LBW summer program but $5,000 seriously. That's a lot. IBW only cost me $100 ($500 total, you get $400 if accepted) and that covered everything. (Room, board, meals, etc.) I would look for other options unless your family has the money.</p>

<p>LBW was the best summer ever! Ask anyone who has been there and they will tell u it was completely worth it. u meet upenn professors and take classes with them and u learn a lot. not to mention u meet a lot of great ppl. totally convince your parents to pay.</p>

<p>I am applying to LEAD this year. I know there was some summer program at Drexel sponsored by Commerce Bank. You may wanna check that out.</p>

<p>lbw or harvard summer? I am in a pickle....</p>

8

<p>Harvard = good</p>

9

<p>lbw is def more focus on business than harvard!
the two programs are very different that you almost can't compare them. LBW is only 4 weeks whereas harvard is eight. they are both very prestigious program but in terms of selectivity, lbw is more competitive.</p>

10

<p>do these summer programs actually provide admission adv. other than credit?</p>

11

<p>you receive credit(s) from harvard but not from lbw
harvard is more of a pre-college program which high school students get to taste the water of college! in terms of admission advantage, you wont get into harvard/penn simply by going to their summer programs. you will get a better sense of the campus which will be a great asset to have when you write your why penn/why harvard</p>

13

<p>Anyone appling/applied?</p>

14

<p>bump......</p>

15

<p>i did......</p>

16

<p>..........apply?</p>

17

<p>Does anyone know how long it takes them to review applicants?</p>

18

<p>i went three summers ago and i'm a wharton student now....if it is the same admissions as when i went then they have a rolling admissions which means they review apps as they come in....so later you apply the smaller the chance of getting accepted...but given the changes that have happened to lbw since i went....it might be completely different</p>

19
