[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid put all their eggs into one basket, which was a residential summer program at a university.  If they had not been accepted, they would have been very late into the year without a summer research assignment.  So for parents of younger kids, I'd strongly advise you to make sure your student is reaching out to multiple people and apply to multiple programs.  (To be fair, I'm sure they were told this in class, but my kid did not follow through.  And they're usually pretty self-sufficient, so by the time we realized they hadn't applied anywhere else, it was so close to the notification date for the summer program that they just waited it out.)[/quote]

How is a residential summer program that you pay for an internship? Did this meet the criteria for the Blair magnet? I thought most of those programs were cash cows only and usually unaffiliated with the prestigious institution where they are located.[/quote]

Who said they pay for it? You actually have no idea of what you're talking about.

It was a question. That’s all. Don’t get your knickers in a twist.[/quote]
