Summer Scholars Program in Biomedical Research

<p>Anyone else here get into the Summer Scholars Program in Biomedical Research? Are you considering doing it?</p>

<p>I got in!</p>

<p>If I end up going to Wash U, which is pretty likely if my financial aid package works out, then I’ll probably do the program.</p>

<p>I found a list of people who did the program last summer. I contacted one and she said she had a really amazing experience. So, it looks promising…

<p>There’s a bunch of smaller stuff too…</p>

<p>Since I have no research experience, I think my essay got me into this program. I wrote about an incurable disease I have and how I want to research in order to help prevent other people from having to deal with incurable diseases.</p>

<p>I got into the program as well! I was hoping for the Moog Scholarship more, but this is totally awesome! :D</p>

<p>Hey does anyone know if the program is binding? Meaning, do we have to go if we get in? Thanks!!</p>

<p>The program is not binding. You are free to choose to do whatever you want.</p>
