NIH SIP Summer of 2016

Pre-College Issues Summer Programs
1

Hello,

I applied for the SIP program in mid February, and have not received any offers from PIs. I’ve been looking through forums and I saw that most of the search for a mentor occurs by e-mailing PIs directly. I was wondering if it was too late to e-mail a PI and wanted to know if anyone knew when they stop looking for a summer intern.

Thanks,
Jack

It is not too late to email, but you should be scrambling to write those emails because there really isn’t much time left. Most labs will already be full by now (if you decide to do this next year, start emailing in November if you want a good chance of getting into a lab).
