<p>I am currently an undergraduate student graduating at the year of 2010. The last day for my assessment period is at May 2010.
Am I eligible to go for Caltech SURF during the year 2010 since by then I will be a senior?</p>
<p>I read their FAQ that a senior can "maybe" apply, does the case applies to me here?</p>

SURF has extremely limited funding for non-Caltech students. In most cases, mentors will have to pay the full amount.

<p>I think this is the factor that will matter most in your SURF application. If you can find a faculty member ahead of time that is willing to fund you for the summer it's very likely you'll get accepted by the SURF program.</p>
<p>What are you planning to do after the SURF that you feel it's a worthwhile thing to do post-graduation?</p>
<p>Also, you may want to look into the MURF program if you fall under that category: MURF</a> Undergraduate Research Fellowships .. M U R F .. <caltech></caltech></p>
