<p>I keep researching but can't seem to find good summer programs for sophomores. Any that include science is great and a stipend would be even better though.</p>
<p>Cornell's Nanobiotechnology Internships, but it is extremely competitive, about 10 accepted from about 900 applicants. </p>
<p>There are few programs for soph, many more for jrs.</p>
<p>Well there's TASS which is not research based but offers a seminar in medicine and offers a stipend of 500$ plus full scholarship room, board, and transportation. Not sure the admissions rate but I'm thinking it's somewhere between 20%-50%.</p>
<p>NIH also has research with stipends but you must be sixteen to participate.</p>
<p>SUNY Stonybrook I think has a research program available to high school sophomores.</p>
<p>SSP (summer science program) may allow sophomores.</p>
<p>Syracuse University Summer College admits sophomores. Syracuse</a> University Summer College for High School Students</p>
<p>I've applied to the Cornell, Page program, Drexel research, governor's school program,and Iowa university so far</p>
<p>I thought Drexel was only for 16 and over, are you a rising junior then?</p>
<p>yep but sophomore when i applied</p>
<p>Search locally as well! I was going all round the country looking for opportunities and there is an extremely selective, paid internship right in my backyard!</p>
<p>If you are near California, you might also try Standford which has a medical program but no housing..</p>
<p>^ Yeah I looked at that but I'm all the way in the east coast and have no family in the west so no housing. It was a good opportunity though</p>
