MIT Minority Introduction to Engineering and Science (MITES)

<p>@balla102 - I live in Sunrise. If I told you what school I went to, you'd probably laugh. Practically NO ONE from my school has even heard of MIT.</p>

<p>April 20th?! That's no fun...I'll still be at the Championship :/ But Sunday sounds like a weird day to assign to anything official.</p>

<p>are the summer programs most of you guys mentioned in the past pages free? because if they arent, i cant believe there were so many free programs... i only heard of this one and fsu young scholars... also, do you think that sending the application right on the deadline (i did) will decrease chances?</p>

<p>One more thing (agh I can't stop coming back to this thread)...</p>

<p>I just read on the WTP thread in the MIT sub-forum that their decisions will be released in a week. Might there be any correlation between the two (WTP and MITES), like perhaps the same selection committees? Just pure speculation here...</p>

<p>its possible they are connected. But each program has its own director and it might be a hassle to pick out people for three programs(RSI included). MITES alone has like 800 applicants, and I really don't think they committee is all the big.</p>

<p>anyone in Florida going to State Science fair or ISEF?</p>

<p>woah,
that april 20th is a random date i made up
didnt; mean to cuz all this hactic.</p>

<p>ma bad</p>

<p>hey balla102, why are you asking about ISEF when everyone knows that you didn't make it.
:)</p>

<p>well tebow15 correct me if im wrong but making it to ISEF did not get you into RSI. Isn't that unfortunate. Matter of fact you were REJECTED. o man. isnt that to bad.</p>

<p>now, guys...calm down....we're not going to flame each other. We're here to talk about stuff, not to play word games.</p>

<p>ummmm, wait a sec, i thought MITES decisions were being mailed out april 1st??</p>

<p>no tell that tebow kid to calm downnn. lol naa im jk. We are just messing. This thread is dying down so we thought a little drama would liven it up.</p>

<p>what made you think that? i want to know NOW. lol</p>

<p>so theyre being mailed out on april 20th?
that is SO far awayyyy
and here i was thinking that i was already rejected bc i didnt get a letter yet...</p>

<p>april 20th isnt the exact date. All we know is mid April. People are just assuming April 20th.</p>

<p>im gonna assume april 15th bc that's actually mid april and i just want to know and get it over with yo</p>

<p>thanks for clarifying the dates, though</p>

<p>I am probably the most calm out of this group. Decisions will come when they come.</p>

<p>At this point, I don't care when they get here anymore. I just hope it's before May.</p>

<p>Its hard to think that this thread started out 3 months ago! We've waited for 2 months already! I just hope that I can get it asap but I'm not really hyped up anymore.</p>

<p>since there really isn't much to discuss anymore other than wait, can any veterans tell us about the workload at MITES? It seems like there a lot of homework and that people need to work together to finish it.</p>
