<p>I am a rising junior looking for a summer program and came across many internships (nih, garcia etc.) that accept rising juniors but say that you must be 16 by the start of the program. I will be 16 in August (after the program starts). Is it worthwhile to apply? Will my application even be considered??</p>
<p>1) I think that the summer program thread would give a better answer</p>
<p>2) I don’t think so, because, as you said, you must be 16 by the start of the program. But, I’m not really sure. You should contact your program and ask them.</p>
