<p>it’s possible, but kind of unlikely because the people who go to garcia or any research camp for the summer tend to have already done some research and they are going there to continue it…</p>
<p>again, i don’t know for sure… but out- of -state students are not at the convenience to travel to say garcia everyday to do research lol</p>
<p>i do have a friend though who was an Intel Finalist after a summer at Garcia…</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Does anyone know how much room and board is (for seven weeks)?</p>
<p>Its 1000 and then like 100 lab fees
check the website</p>
<p>1000 is the cost of the program itself, not including room and board.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I meant Simons, Garcia, Clark Scholars, and several others.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>From the website, it looks like several did.</p>
<p>if i haven’t gotten any decision, rejection or acceptance, from Garcia should i e-mail them?</p>
<p>Yea definitely. Hopefully you’ll get in!</p>
<p>For anyone else who was wondering…all decisions will be made by this friday
Thanks LiveLifeLoud, i hope so too!</p>
<p>Not all the decisions have been made yet? Good luck to everyone!!!</p>
<p>Anyone know if Garcia accepted sophs (rising juniors) ?</p>
<p>i think you had to be at least 16…?</p>
<p>Sophomore are usually 16 lol especially by the summer. They’ve accepted sophs in the past – did they this year?</p>
<p>does anyone know what the total cost of garcia is?
room board, + $1100 program, and food?
the site shows meal plans up to $2500, but nothing on the cost of room and board, is there a previous attendee who would know?</p>
<p>Yeah, I’m a rising junior and I got accepted by the garcia program.
coming all the way from california…</p>
<p>Oh, cool!
I was just wondering… do you have a significant background in science research? or just really high grades? high SAT II/AP scores in science? hehe, i’m just wondering what it is that the admissions people looks for when accepting students for garcia…</p>
<p>hi, does anyone know if the garcia program has been discontinued? I can’t seem to find the website anymore</p>
<p>hello everyone. please help!
i just found out about this program a week ago. the deadline’s approaching.
Do we NEED a mentor to apply? i’ve never done any research before. would that mean i def won’t get in?
i have good grades, took AP Bio and Chem, 239 PSATs, volunteered at a science museum.</p>
<p>I’m still deciding on whether to apply for Garcia this year and the deadline is coming soon.
**Do you need research experience?
I merely have an interest, but have never done anything before.
I live in CA and it seems like most of you in this thread are around the NY area. Are there many out-of-state people?</p>
<p>Did anyone apply and get in?</p>
<p>I got in to Simons! Check out the thread created for all accepted students.</p>
