RSI 2016

Does anyone know if we will get our decisions March 14th like they did last year or April 1st as usual?

Is it just me or was the deadline on Slideroom just extended to the 26th? Wasn’t it 22nd before?

OK… none of my recommenders have gotten an email from slideroom… is this a problem?

@heslumbersnot delete the references or resend the requests. email slideroom if you still have a problem :slight_smile:

@Clareesi It’s the 22nd for the application, 26th for recommenders iirc

@picats3141 “Note: The Center for Excellence (CEE) is extending the Research Science Institute (RSI) application deadline to Tuesday, January 26, 2016. All applications, recommendation letters, and test scores must be at CEE via Slideroom.com by this date. There will be no exceptions granted by CEE.” On their website!

@mischiefmaker Well then, I stand corrected…lol I already submitted the app though, so the extension doesn’t really matter for me.

Hello, does anyone know how we send AP scores? I don’t think my school has my AP scores, so should I just email an unofficial copy? Thanks!

Just found out they extended the deadline. Best news I’ve gotten in days :slight_smile:

i’m genuinely scared that i’ll have a power outage and not be able to turn in my application :frowning: i live in the southeast so the snow is so heavy right now, already over 2 feet

^^ The app is not due for four more days so even if you had an outage there’s still plenty of time to restore the power, If not, you could use your phone and email them your circumstances. I can’t see why they wouldn’t grant you some extra time. You can’t control the weather.

@falcon1 that’s comforting to hear :slight_smile: are you guys citing sources for your first essay?

Applications for international students came out in November.I applied and I am in :). All I did was write a very good essay, telling why I wanted to go,so you guys should take good care of that.I don’t have previous experience nor any awards

@kanev99 congrats!! i think the processes are a little different in the states though.

Hi guys! I have a quick question. Does RSI want our middle school transcripts with our grades from middle school?

@Runkeeper No, just high school is enough.

Hi everyone, is anyone planning on emailing or calling Rsi to make sure they received test scores and transcripts? Is that a good idea or no?

guys, did you cite sources for the first essay??

@mischiefmaker Uh I don’t think you should do in-text citations with parentheses. You could be like “According to this paper/author/scientist blah blah”

Why do you guys think they extended the deadline?
