[quote=Anonymous]Reasons I would send my kid to a summer program (provided the cost of reasonable)/ 1. Experience dorm life and being away from home. 2. Be around people who aren’t from their school/hometown and learn from them. 3. Hopefully improve some executive functioning skills 4 Get a sense of the bigger world outside their immediate school or hometown bubble Unless it’s one of those Uber-competitive, all costs paid, meritocratic summer programs, I don’t think most “pay-to-play” summer programs offer any long term academic or college admissions edge.
