Summer Ventures in Science and Mathematics?

<p>That’s funny. I wanted to go to ECU because I have lived there for 9 years and know the area by heart. However, I am grateful that I was selected!! So, wherever they send me is fine.
ECU is a very nice place, and I am sure that you will have a blast! Which program are you doing? (medicine, chemistry, etc.)</p>

<p>Charlotte is a very big and fun city! I live an hour from there; so, we go often :slight_smile: Their NASCAR stadium is worth checking out!</p>

<p>If you live an hour from Charlotte, we might be close. I live in Davidson County.</p>

<p>My first pick for Summer Ventures was Computer Science, but I don’t know the classes until I receive info from ECU. Too bad they wouldn’t let us switch spots.</p>

<p>I’m an alternate for ECU, does anyone know if it will be likely or not that I’ll get in? I really want to go! I hope a lot of people drop out :(</p>

<p>@Mich5225: Thanks! I hope its fun.
That sounds pretty cool, I wish my school would do that. I am fortunate enough to have Pre Calc and AP Calculus at my school though. This is actually the first year in 3 years that there has been enough smart juniors to offer AP’s classes. It was a real fight to get them to offer AP Biology, but me and my friends made it happen. </p>

<p>Nice meeting you as well. :)</p>

<p>@mlover15: Awesome! Sounds like fun! I applied for the following on my application;</p>

<ol>
<li>Medicine </li>
<li>Biology </li>
<li>Chemistry </li>
<li>Applied Math</li>
</ol>

<p>Has anyone else on here been accepted to SVSM?</p>

<p>Are you on Facebook? Maybe we should start a Summer Ventures 2012 page. Sorry, I don’t have time to do right now but would love to join if you make one. Interested?</p>

<p>I would but I don’t have a facebook. I have been meaning to get one but haven’t got around to it. I have a twitter though.</p>

<p>@mich5225 I live in Guilford County; so, we are pretty close. I wish we could trade places! My selections were: Medicine, Chemistry, Biology, and Physics. But, do not know what App is offering until the letter comes.
Maybe if this thread gains popularity, we can start a FB page.</p>

<p>@nate42 Maybe you can start a twitter group?</p>

<p>@nate42 Hey, I’ve been accepted to SVSM at Charlotte too!</p>

<p>@quyen820: Awesome! :slight_smile: What subjects did you apply for?</p>

<p>@mlover15: I think I will do that, how many of you have twitters?</p>

<p>@nate42. I applied for 1. Medicine 2. Engineering Apps. 3. Chemistry 4. Archaeology</p>

<p>@mich5225 created a Facebook page at <a href=“https://www.facebook.com/SummerVentures2012[/url]”>https://www.facebook.com/SummerVentures2012&lt;/a&gt; if you guys want to check that out too!</p>

<p>@quyen820: That sounds pretty interesting! I am creating a twitter page as we speak and a user for @mich5225’s Facebook page.</p>

<p>I am a alternate for ECU… I hope I get in!</p>

<p>@Iceindian101: good luck!!</p>

<p>@quyen820: Do you happen to know when we are notified about what subjects we received?</p>

<p>My letter states that “Dr. Mary Farwell will be contacting you within the next few day…sending program assignments.” I assume it will be soon. Called Summer Ventures office on Thursday. They told me where I was going, but had no clue about what I would be studying. Don’t waste your time calling them.</p>

<p>@Iceindian101- what were your program picks, ie Chemistry, Computer Science, etc?</p>

<p>@mich5225: Yeah my letter says the same thing. I hope it’s soon!
Now that I think of it, I am wondering why I put Applied Math as my 4th choice… if I have that class I will be bored out of my mind.</p>

<p>@nate42: I’m waiting for mail or a call in the next week. I hope it’s soon too because I’m really curious. But I’m not sure why I put Archaeology as my 4th choice either…</p>
