Rockefeller U Summer Science Outreach

<p>I have been accepted to the Rockefeller University Summer Science Outreach Program. Do you know how good this program is compared to other top programs (Clark, Simons, Magee-Womens, Boston U, etc.)? I am looking for an intensive research internship but I don't have a lot of experience and I want adequate guidance.</p>

<p>Thanks for your prompt responses!</p>

<p>Are you sure you got accepted? At this point, they should be only placing you in a lab…I know I misinterpreted the email they sent and thought I got accepted, only to realize that it was just another step of the admissions process and I still have the chance of getting rejected.</p>

<p>If they can find a lab that will take you (after the lab interviews you) then you will be formally accepted.</p>

<p>Good point…I had not gotten a lab placement at the time of posting but now I do have a lab placement. Thanks for the post! Good luck :)</p>

<p>do you have to get the letter to be accepted ?</p>

<p>Should I be worried that I only recieved a confirmation email saying my application was received? Do you know how selective this program is?</p>

<p>Is anyone else going?</p>

<p>I’m going! :slight_smile: I’m guessing you are going too, saturnne…what’s your lab?</p>

<p>Population Council, what about yours?</p>

<p>What’s that about? It sounds cool though :)</p>

<p>I’m in the Laboratory of Genetically Encoded Small Molecules.</p>

<p>Cool! Mine’s outside of the university… I think. You should check out the website.</p>

<p>Oooh I looked it up! It looks really interesting.</p>

<p>Yeah, I’m so excited! And seven weeks in NYC sounds amazing. Do you have any idea about the program’s acceptance rate?</p>

<p>bumping this because i too would like to know the acceptance rate</p>
