Summer program Cornell Nanobiotech and NIH

<p>i got one. i can't give them one though b/c my school's on spring break as of today! i got the e-mail right after hte office closed. </p>

<p>anyone else?</p>

<p>My essay was terrible (wrote it the day of the deadline in about five minutes), and I got one.</p>

<p>Man. I thought my essay was decent. It must of been the programs I did ..they were awful. Or you're a really good writer ohnoes and you don't know it.</p>

<p>Well, they probably just send them out as they read the applications, so don't count yourself out yet...</p>

<p>Programs?</p>

<p>Yeah because our school cirruculum is pretty bad, and there isn't much to do around our little village here..so I try to do my best getting more involved outside the school/area. They confirmed my application on 3/3. Darn.</p>

<p>I already sent in one with my app. Mrs. Kong told me it was fine.</p>

<p>Hah, I don't have anything at all (previous biology/science research stuff anyway), and I'm not planning on driving an hour an a half to do research at an actual university. Of course, I'm probably the only person in my area to have applied for it, so that could have helped.</p>

<p>so if you got an email does that mean you are being considered for acceptance?</p>

<p>i have no idea! i honestly think that everyone will eventually get an e-mail. i'm trying not to get my hopes up =&lt;/p>

<p>Cornell Nanobiotech doesn't necessarily look like such an organized program that sends e-mails and acceptance letters on the same day like most colleges do: it has after all, only 6 acceptees so...</p>

<p>well maybe their methods/beliefs are just different. doesn't necessarily reflect on their organization</p>

<p>I got an email too. I will fax my transcript on monday.</p>

<p>anyone know when we'll actually get letters? it says like April 25th or something, but any chance of it coming out earilier you think?</p>

<p>wow, really old bump, anyone heard anything?</p>

<p>nope. still waiting. they don't plan on saying anything til the 25th but i'm calling them tomorrow, i have to notify one of my summer programs by the 20th.</p>

<p>do u prefer going there over nasa sharp?</p>

<p>i was thinking about it, but i think i'm going to go with sharp. i really wanted to go to sharp and...yea.</p>

<p>Give me the position since I sincerely doubt I'm getting in ;)</p>

<p>argh, this waiting is killing me...</p>

<p>so....tomorrow we know, right?</p>
