<p>Hey,
So I am looking for a prestigious summer program that looks good on applications, but is also a good fit for me and somewhere that I will truly enjoy my summer.</p>
<p>Anyway, I am very interested in foreign/international relations, economics, history, psychology, business, government and other such classes. I am pretty smart, have all A's, and I have decent SAT's that waver between 2000 and 2100. I am a current junior. I also LOVE english and reading.</p>
<p>Nothing science based please.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Well… you definitely need fallbacks, but if it is not too late, apply to TASP for sure.</p>
<p>If you “LOVE” English and reading, I recommend Carleton College’s Summer Writing Program.
3 weeks, 3 academic essays (revise two of them), multiple readings every night. 6 credit hours if you improve enough. You read a lot of great stuff and have some good discussions in class/workshop. Plus, I wrote my best essays there. It’ll REALLY help you prepare for college writing.</p>
<p>Besides the academic stuff, the people you meet there will become some of your best friends :)</p>
<p>I think I will apply to TASP, but really need back up programs that still will be great for me. </p>
<p>Will look into Carleton’s program, but is it competitive and will it look good on an app?</p>
<p>What are thoughts on Oxbridge programs? Prestigious? Do they look good or would it be a waste as far a prestige for college apps?</p>
<p>hmm Im thinking about the same thing…Im really interested in the Oxbridge France one</p>
