Summer Science Program (SSP) 2013

<p>I applied to HSHSP, Clark, SSP, Garcia, and a local program. I’m excited to be in at Garcia…but I have to respond to them by the 22nd. I really hope SSP decisions come out by the 22nd…</p>

<p>that’s what I saw on the site, but Garcia took 3 extra weeks…wasn’t sure if that was normal for these types of programs. congrats on your acceptances…where are you leaning towards now?</p>

<p>Yeah, I’d choose SSP over Garcia. I’m happy with that, though. Looks to be a good summer regardless.</p>

<p>Any guesses for the decision release date? It was a Monday two years ago and a Wednesday last year, far as I can tell from previous threads.</p>

<p>I’m not sure I can wait for a decision much longer… the suspense is killing</p>

<p>My best guess is some time this week… but at the worst it is 6 days from now (which seems long but will be here before we know it!)! Good luck everybody!</p>

<p>Every time I browse on CC, I feel nervous. People are just intense, particular the people who want to go to SSP.</p>

<p>I was listed as an alternate. Kinda bummed, but this wasn’t my first choice program anyway so I guess its not too big of a deal.</p>

<p>Decisions are out. Got rejected. This sucks.</p>

<p>I just got an email. I didn’t make it either. We’ll have lots of company, I’m sure.</p>

<p>Accepted!
I have hope now. This came at the worst part of my week and it made me feel so much better.</p>

<p>I wish everyone else luck in the other programs!</p>

<p>Wow surprised. Rejected but I already have another program’s acceptance.</p>

<p>To those accepted: did you emphasize your love of physics/astronomy in essay #1?</p>

<p>I wrote about physics for #1 and how I plan to take additional courses at college. Still got rejected… Maybe I’m not fit enough for MIT’s qualities (SSP+ RSI)</p>

<p>Got rejected but not surprised hahahah. I’m sure it will be an amazing experience for those who got in! Good luck guys! :)</p>

<p>9% chance if you put down can attend both… That’s pretty pretty selective. Good luck to everyone who goes! To all the girls ;p have fun! Lol</p>

<p>Got my decision… rejected…</p>

<p>Didn’t get in :’( At least I can stop checking my email so often now. Congratulations to everyone that did get in!</p>

<p>@carryatowel I completely agree!!! </p>

<p>@alpha2014 being a girl didn’t help me:(</p>

<p>Accepted! For those interested, I wrote about physics in essay #1 and have little astronomy experience.</p>
