NIH (National Institute of Health) Summer Internship

<p>Hey I was wondering if anyone has been notified of their acceptance into the NIH summer program. They didn't give a specific date....what should I be thinking if I havent gotten a response. Also, would acceptance chances increase if you contact someone there (in a particular lab) or should i just wait?</p>

<p>contacting the particular lab u applied to wud be great idea.</p>

<p>lol... i think contacting them at this point would be too late. i already did about a week ago, and the scientist told me that most labs fill up around the end of February and start of March. unfortunately, i waited too long in order to hear the other admissions decisions at other programs, and i got rejected and waitlisted at both. so i'm kinda worried about what i'll be doing for summer.</p>
