<p>are we sending those?</p>
<p>What are you talking about man?</p>
<p>I can't remember. I think you have to send SAT scores through College Board.</p>
<p>Ah crap. Anyone know the due date</p>
<p>Oh wait. You're already in? Then never mind, don't worry about it.</p>
<p>Really? Then why do all the other colleges require kids to send them again....UCSD is makin a bunch of kids..btw are all freshman in LSA under "comprehensive studies program" and if not, wth is that</p>
<p>I have no idea...maybe they changed something since I applied...</p>
<p>u dont have to send anything in to UCs until they accept u....that's why..it's a verification process of theirs..but for umich..we sent everything in already when we applied</p>

<p>It's mainly for people who may have had crappy backgrounds in high school, offering them additional advising and support to make sure they don't fall behind/feel overwhelmed.</p>
<p>I have friends joining that. It's not all bad. It's not really about stats. There are people with 34+ ACTs in bridge -- I know one.</p>
<p>You are currently registered for the Comprehensive Studies Program Orientation Session starting on Monday, July 30, 2007. </p>
<p>Oh does that mean I should join ?</p>
<p>They pre-selected you like they did to me. It's no big deal. I probably won't mind my high school was kind of laid back in certain ways, but still competitive....so I probably won't mind the advisor. At first I was almost offended to be honest with you because I felt they were saying, "we think you can't handle", but not I'm cool. I have the 22-24 for orientation though. It's funny because I'm also in the Michigan Community Scholars Program so I don't know how this works out.</p>
<p>well i read it at umich.edu...im guessing its jsut a person hounding us making sure our grades dont slip or something? but it said something about different academics...are the classes we take differetn from others</p>
<p>I think you just can get into special/additional sections of certain intro level classes. Like for English, you could be in a section that was all people in the program and maybe a little different from other sections. I think for something like Calc you'd be in the same classes as everybody else, but you'd also have an additional class you could go to for one hour a week to do extra enrichment work. I don't know of anybody here who's done the program, so we all probably know as much as their website says.</p>
<p>I know people who have done the program and it's usually "diversity" applicants. Most of them didn't need it and quit after a semester or a year, but they said it was okay.</p>
<p>Oh I thought it was for only weaker applicants who they wanted to keep a tab on</p>
<p>The general consensus about Bridge Program in the past (not sure about the rest of CSP) is that it was mainly for minority students who probably wouldn't have gotten in had it not been for affirmative action. I think now they mainly target people who come from smaller/crappier school districts. These people might not be used to a) competing against competent people b) having competent advising available c) utilizing the resources of a larger institution. I'm sure they pick a decent amount of kids who really have no need for the program, so don't feel like you're obliged to do it.</p>
<p>ooo i c ic</p>
