NJ Governor's school cancelled due to budget cut

<p>It was very disappointing to hear today that NJ governor's school is cancelled due to budget cut by Gov. Corzine. Lot of kids went through application process for the past 4 months to hear this sad news. Students got selected by their schools and they had to write 2 essays, fill up a long application form,get 2 recommendation letters,and send transcript. All applications from each county in NJ was sent to their county to be selected and it was sent to respective schools for final decission. Now after all this process it got cancelled. I know lot of kids were counting on this program to attend this summer which is 4 weeks long and all expense paid except transportation. I was one of those kids. Now I have to plan to do something else this summer.Did any one on CC applied to this program?. Let me know your thoughts on it.</p>

<p>i was a finalist as well...this really sucks, i was looking forward to hopefully getting in</p>
