<p>MIT has a kids program for kids grades 7-12. ESP is mainly a few days a year where kids can sign up for classes at MIT that are actually very interesting and taught by students. There main programs are as follows: </p>

<p>HSSP: a few saturdays in fall and spring
Splash!: the last (?) weekend in November
Spark!: March 13(this yr) a saturday in march</p>

<p>For each of these registration opens about 2 weeks before the event. Lunch/Dinner is provided.</p>

<p>Spark and Splash are great. I took my kids a couple of times. Not every class offered is the same quality. Some have great teachers, great topics, others- not so much.</p>

<p>I doubt that BS offer anything like this because the classes are taught by undergrad and grad student and alums.</p>

<p>I did Splash, but I only liked one class that I took…the others…</p>

<p>I don’t think bs do stuff like that because of what 2bizee said</p>

<p>What kind of classes do you take? the majority that I’ve taken are interesting and well taught.</p>

<p>That sounds cool! I’m doing a summer program at Georgetown in July:)</p>

10

<p>Haha while y’all are off doing studious, academic summer programs like the MIT and Georgetown ones I’ll be off at sleepaway camp having the time of my life and doing nothing that doesn’t involve fun/relaxation whatsoever. Wow… I feel really lazy right now! :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :)</p>

11

<p>PEOPLE. GO. TO. SPLASH. MIT Splash is about the best thing ever. It’s really cheap. Two days of any class you want to take. I think it’s a good deal.</p>

12

<p>OMG! I go to like allll of them! HSSP, Splash, Spark, erryythang! I love them!</p>

13

<p>me too! I’m deleting that obnoxious comment of mine that messes up the page dangit cant do tht :/</p>

14

<p>Gosh, you’re so obnoxious Rad. :p</p>

<p>Anywhooo, do you have to apply to the MIT program? Is it too late? Because I am totally looking for educational things to do this summer.</p>

15

<p>no, no applying. I think it may be too late to do summer HSSP though.</p>

<p>You have to live in the area though or be up there every Saturday. The other programs have an um wider array of choices than HSSP especially since they’re during the year.</p>

16

<p>the second part of registration begins tomorrow! that’s when I’m registering. You all should do it!</p>

17

<p>Well, I live a plane ride away from MA so I obviously can’t do it. But I applied for a Young Democrats of America High School Leadership Conference that’s in Washington D.C. As you can see, I’m all about DC haha.</p>

18

<p>DCs cool :slight_smile: I’m glad there’s a new page lol</p>
