Hello, This site has provided enormous amounts of information and assistance for our other children but I am stumped on next summer opportunities for one of our children. I know applications start in the Fall so want to start a list.
She will be a rising 11th grader next year but does not meet the age requirement (majority 16) for entrance and lab work. Last time ACT/SAT taken was 7th to qualify for CTY/TIP so no current standardized scores for hs. Can have her take in hs but is that a good idea at this time for a summer program?
Ideally the pre-college program will be a few weeks long, science, engineering or concrete math related and exposure to children her age. Trying to not break the bank with a large tuition bill. Looked at some of the prestigious summer programs(MIT site), and they were either in a different subject area, for rising seniors, way too expensive or she is too young to be admitted :( The too young appears to be the discriminator on most of the applications.
Please, if you have a suggestion for a pre-college program. Willing to travel in the US but must plan early. She has attended programs since she was in 6th grade and talks all year about where she will be going on her ,"academic vacation!"
