Summer Plans for '09 Admits

<p>where can i find more info on this NASA SHARP? any website? also, when does it start/end? thnks</p>

<p>i am getting a job as a waitress at this bar on a lake in Wisconsin. and then pretty much just taking care of myself and getting ready for the big move -in to Ithaca. man it is gonna be emotional...</p>

<p>im not thinking about moving yet. there's still time. i know im going to start bawling when my lil sister goes back home tho. I did that at CTY...</p>

<p>About the NASA SHARP thing.</p>

<p>You can only do it if you are 1) NOT white, or 2) Are a girl, or 3) Have some kind of disability. Just so that people who dont meet these criteria don't get their hopes up.</p>

<p>Well its possible....but highly unlikely if you don't satisfy those requirements. I made it to round two of the application pool last year....but my interviews didn't go too well....hopefully, it'll all be better this time around.</p>

<p>There were white males in my program. 3 out of 16 to be exact</p>

<p>who else has summer plans?</p>

<p>sparticus, im confused....so....are u going to princeton next year or to cornell?</p>

<p>nevermind, i just read the other thread...u live in jersey but ur going to cornell....:)</p>

<p>good one slicmlic ;-)</p>

<p>do u frequent the princeton campus? i was wondering about whether or not the stereotypes of the "average princetonian" hold true or not</p>

<p>yeah i'm there a good bit and have some friends there.</p>

<p>ok, im not one two or three, thanks for the info</p>

<p>vbear which CTY were you at!?!? I loooove CTY w/ all my <3!</p>

<p>hm, i went to the loudonville-siena college campus. it was so much fun! what about you?</p>

<p>If you are a minority you might get an invitation to the COSEP prefreshman summer program. Basically they pay for you to spend 6 wks at Cornell and to get a jump on some of your required classes. They also pay your entire summer savings expectation. If you get invited you should definitely go; its well worth it.</p>

<p>oooooh summer! I'm going on a cruise to the caribbean with a group of my friends in June to just relax and let loose on our own and i just moved to a house on Lake Washington so i'll be boating, water skiing and partying all day... sooo excited!! then in august i will get to meet all of you wonderful people!</p>

<p>Summer...I'm partying with my high school friends and having some good times before I go to college...and working in a camp</p>

<p>I was at carlisle (dickinson college) for CTY</p>

<p>Has anyone even mentioned BEACH WEEK??????? This should be the highlight of your summer. After that working by day, partying by night. Maybe visit friends in Charleston and Cape Cod.</p>
