<p>Just out of curiosity of how many summer programs people are applying to and which ones are the most popular...</p>
<p>As for myself:
1. MITES (Highly unlikely that I'll get in.... because I'm Asian. But I thought I'd have a higher chance at this than at RSI)
2. Summer Science Program (I think I'll probably get in, but I'm not sure if I'd choose this over COSMOS because COSMOS seems more fun and less work)
3. COSMOS at UCSD (Probably will do it with friends.)</p>
<p>(rising junior btw)
1. Summer Science Program
2. SuMAC (Stanford Math Camp)
3. Tanglewood Piano Camp</p>
<p>and when(not if, when..) i don't get into those... PROMYS, WCC Piano Camp, Harvard SSP, Stanford thing... the one like Harvard SSP, CTY, or research and taking multivariable at home.</p>
<p>son is in 10th grade this year and applying to these (no particular order)</p>
<p>Brown Summer School
AFS Cultural Exchange to Thailand
George Washington University Summer Program
Washington and Lee Summer Scholars
Oxbridge
YFU Cultural Exchange to Japan or China</p>
<p>He would need close to full scholarships to attend any of them -- that is why these particular programs were chosen and why he applied to so many. He is not a math/science person. He was already accepted into the Brown Summer School with great FA.</p>
