<p>admitted, CT!</p>
<p>I’m at the CA campus</p>
<p>I’m on NM campus! Anyone else going? :)</p>
<p>I have no idea how the waitlist works. However, reading previous years accounts, I think there’s some kind of order.Also, if it really is 7-10 people that make it, all the better for us!</p>
<p>@janedoeee11 here’s my source for the 5 people that got in last year: <a href=“Summer Science Program (SSP) 2013 - #391 by Aischylos - Summer Programs - College Confidential Forums”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/summer-programs/1412009-summer-science-program-ssp-2013-p27.html</a> It’s about the third one down</p>
<p>@Holocaust I’m wondering about the financial aid as well…</p>
<p>I was admitted to the NM campus. I am still debating whether to go the SSP or attend PROMYS as a second year student, but I’ll probably go to SSP. Other admitted people should join the official facebook group!</p>
<p>@Holocaust @QQwang2015 My parents’ income is around $85k and my net cost (NOT including my plane ticket) was around $1,900.</p>
<p>Kinda curious how many people admitted are USAMO/USAPhO qualifiers? Or with other major science math achievements?</p>
<p>@RAF1940 how much aid did you ask for? If you’d asked for more, do you think you would’ve gotten more?</p>
<p>Hey guys! I’m an international applicant and get admitted to NM campus. FYI, I was picked from waitlist! So there’s really a chance for waitlist. Don’t lose heart. Good luck! </p>
<p>@Holocaust I just requested as much aid as they’d give me. My parents said that we could make the $1,900 work, so I really don’t know if I would’ve gotten more if I’d asked for it. I do know that SSP has many generous alumni, so I’d say there’s definitely a chance of getting more aid.</p>
<p>Hey guys, I was just wondering how informal we can be when we email Mr. Bowdon (if any alumni here know)?</p>
<p>Come on and join the FB group, NM guys!</p>
<p>So, they said financial aid applications are due 3 days after you receive your acceptance. Are they super-strict about that? That would mean it’s due today, Sunday. And nothing should ever be due on a Sunday. It’s the day of our lord and savior Jesus Christ. </p>
<p>hi everyone! i hav a question. just got accepted to the NM campus [idk if i’ll go but yay!], but is this SSP the “prestigious” SSP everyone’s talking about? (so 10% admittance rate is a selective one right?) </p>
<p>i just got confused with the other SSP’s out there, like the jackson and harvard ones… </p>
<p>@STEMftw If by the “prestigious one” you mean the one with a 10% acceptance rate, then yes, it is.</p>
<p>@STEMftw How can you not know what it is but still applied to it?</p>
<p>@ProximaCentauri haha I definitely know what this program is in terms of its structure and heavy focus on high level astronomy. have been waiting since freshman year to apply. </p>
<p>i just didn’t realize this program was deemed prestigious by people on college confidential until a few days ago. </p>
<p>@STEMftw haha alright, I understand you! The other SSP is probably the normal summer school of Harvard’s? </p>
