MIT&Harvard LAUNCH program

<p>If I'm looking to do science research summer program? Should I bother applying for this? I really want to have the option to experience MIT life (hoping RSI&MITES :/)</p>

<p>I think the program is brand new. 4 weeks and 4500$</p>

<p>Apparently it’s taught by MIT and Harvard Business school professor… </p>

<p>@GrammarNazi, I’ll link it to you later :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I google to find more info and it didn’t come up the program. You have to find it at a specific link I guess.</p>

<p>It doesn’t ask for teacher Rec
But it does ask for transcript, 4 page PowerPoint of yourself, resume of ECs and stuff.</p>

<p>Anyways I think this is the first year program O_O the link looks newly developed</p>

<p>That sounds great.</p>

<p>Found it yet? :)</p>

<p>Has anyone else applied to Launch yet? Haven’t heard of anyone else who applied… so just curious.
Also, do any of you have any idea about the acceptance rate? Since they admit 30-40 people I presume it would be in the 5-25% range.</p>

<p>Hi, Has anyone applied to launch?</p>

<p>I did. This is the first year of the program right?</p>

<p>yeah this is the first year. has anyone heard back yet?</p>

<p>yeah I applied but I still haven’t heard back yet :/</p>

<p>I applied regular action. Has anyone landed an interview?</p>

<p>I also replied RD. I sent them an email about two months ago and never got a response…I am a bit skeptical at this point about the program.</p>

<p>They emailed me back asking for an interview. Did anyone do early action and get in?</p>

<p>so you emailed them first? what did u ask them?</p>

<p>I didn’t email them- they emailed me.</p>

<p>when did they email you about the interview? I applied RD and still haven’t gotten any response yet</p>

<p>They emailed me Sunday…I think they’re still looking at applications until March 31?</p>

<p>Ok phew. It seems like no one else has gotten an interview yet…kind of strange. And March 31 is coming up really soon. They’re only accepting 35 people but I’m not sure how many applied.</p>

<p>Yeah…I’m curious. I really want to know how many people applied because this is the first year MIT is having this program. They said they were reviewing applications from Feb 1 to March 31…they must have chosen others for interviews. Anyways, good luck!</p>

<p>has anybody received an interview yet</p>

<p>@produde, did you receive an interview?</p>
