[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] A summer program can help the application tell a credible story. If the applicant says they want to major in X, and they did a summer pre-college program in X, then that program is helpful to the application. They also help your kid get a better understanding of whether or not they really do want to major in X.[/quote] +1 Agree with this. My child is also interested in a niche area where high school does not provide in-depth experience. DC is signed up for 2 different pre-college programs that will provide hands-on field work and immersion in the subject. Besides helping to narrow down interests for major in college, the essay will show how these programs helped develop more certainty of focus and not just wasting the summer.[/quote]
