[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They don't necessarily help with an admission. But there are so many benefits. I did one. I made lifelong friends, enjoyed the rigorous classes, loved living on a college campus, made connections with professors, etc.[/quote] Yes. I think there are benefits. But all the info I've found says they generally don't help with admissions. Not everything has to be about admissions, though. I'd really like my kid to go to a college program this summer because he's not really been away from home before. Did not do sleepaway camp, and the last two years were total washes. He was going to go to CTY 2 summers ago and that got cancelled. So he's just done online summer school two summers in a row. I've been doing a lot of research on which programs actually seem to have some merit with colleges + what he wants and will enjoy + what he might get into. He's applying to some math and science programs. [/quote]
