LEAD 09'- Applying?

<p>yeah and btw.</p>

<p>Email them for general principles to make sure they recieved your app. I did the same and had i didnt, i would have even been considered. They didnt recieve my application questionaire so i had to submit it twice.</p>

<p>Oh and to people who have attended before.</p>

<p>This might sound awkward but i want to know about the facilitys and stuff and how it was.</p>

<p>I know now that you guys had single dorms but what about bath rooms and showers.. Did you guys have your own showers or community showers? what were living quarters like, living conditions for the 3 weeks?</p>

<p>For the business solution essay do they want us to paste the entire article and then our essay, or just like a link to the article?</p>

<p>pnthrs 11 i called the people at LEAD and they said that all the stuff just needs to be postmarked by Feb 5. but i wud still send it in a little early just to be safe</p>

<p>At Penn, almost all of us had singles (as madicent7 pointed out) and we used community showers. I never waited for a shower, and the bathrooms seemed to be somewhat cleaned daily (or every other day). Rooms did not have refrigerators or microwaves.</p>

<p>I don't know what to really say about living conditions...we all stay in dorms. Sure, rooms and hallways are a little drab, but you'll settle in quickly. Just don't leave food open; rats and ants might stop by if you do.</p>

<p>But it was nice to live in a place like the Quad...the architecture and huge yard in the middle made up for the shortfalls of a dorm.</p>

<p>Sweet. Well by the way guys.</p>

<p>I tore my MCL two days ago. </p>

<p>I find out if i need surgery thursday. hopefully i dont. Anyone had this kind of injury before?</p>

<p>I'm sending my app in tomorrow I hope I get into the UPENN program.
Top 5 choices
1. UPENN
2. Cornell
3. UVA
4. Duke
5. University of Michigan</p>

<p>mine was sent overnight today so ill be calling tomorrow to mkae sure they got it</p>

<p>FM23... where you from, im also hoping i get into the penn program which they said is going to be june28-july25</p>

<p>It wpi;d ne awesome if we all got into Penn.. </p>

<p>Not likely but would be awesome.</p>

<p>I had 2 kids participate in LEAD, one at UVA and the other at Dartmouth. Both had great experiences. No need to be concerned about the quality of the program or the general experience. It's top notch. You'll learn a lot, make some good friends, meet some business leaders, and work on some interesting projects. And yes, LEAD does boost your resume'. It gets noticed. I think a fairly high % of LEAD alums end up at their school of choice and do very well afterwards. Those of you who will participate really have something to look forward to. </p>

<p>Good luck to you all...</p>

<p>^ thank you,</p>

<p>im looking forward to find out at the end of march.</p>

<p>Do they notify by email or through the mail?</p>

<p>Next year, I'll be applying, and I'm a white male, so I've really got to really stand out, right? lol</p>
