<p>I just came across this, and I could only find an old thread about it. Did anyone participate in this program recently (2012 or 2013)? Any reviews?</p>
<p>I participated last year in 2013 and it was an absolutely AMAZING experience. The price is really what drew me, as so many if not all pre-college programs are thousands and thousands of dollars. </p>
<p>I have to say though, I enjoyed it much more than I ever thought I would. The classes (both that I chose and did not choose) introduced me to new ways of looking at things I come across a lot in life. The other students there were great - there’s a whole bunch that I keep in semi-regular contact with - and the counselors were some of the best I’ve ever had at a “camp”. </p>
<p>If you have specific questions about other parts of the program I can answer them, but my overall statement is APPLY! You won’t regret it :)</p>
<p>I also participated last year and recommend applying. The deadline has been extended to May 2 (however this hasn’t been updated on the site). Overall its a well-rounded program: good classes, good profs, good students, good activities, good length, good price. They’re offering some neat courses this year.</p>
<p>I participated last year and it was super-fun. Highly recommend it. </p>
<p>I got in for the program this year. I’m still on the fence about doing it since I would have to give up my summer job to participate. How would you say this program helps for apps/experience? </p>
