Princeton Plasma Physics?

<p>Has anyone here done the PPPL Summer Research Internship for high school students here?
I'm applying and I'd just like to know what the research is like there. Do you choose your own topics, or is it assigned? </p>

<p>Also, as I've never really had any previous research experience, will that hurt my chances significantly? They have a section of the application for listing previous research experience.</p>

<p>bump… would still like to know more about this program</p>

<p>how does the school year internship work?</p>

<p>bump…has anyone received a confirmation email yet (about recommendations/transcripts)? and when are decisions announced?</p>

<p>I sent them an email to inquire about the status of my application; they told me they received all my materials and my application was being reviewed. Not sure when decisions are made; hopefully before April 17 when I have to send out gov school decisions -.-</p>

<p>is pppl a residential program?</p>

<p>nope</p>

<p>10chars</p>

<p>I got accepted.
I don’t think its a residential program but I have to
call and make sure.
Hope to meet any other students there!</p>

<p>I got in too. it’s not residential, so i guess i’ll have to commute/stay in princeton’s dorms if i can get a spot</p>

<p>i wonder how much we get paid?</p>

<p>To the people that got into the program… can you tell me a little bit about what exactly you did? How was it?</p>

<p>Sorry to revive an old thread, but I’m applying this year and I’m really interested in the program, does anyone have any advice about the application / interview?</p>
