I wanted to get ideas for summer programs for my daughter who will be a rising junior this summer. We would like her to explore a program at a college. I've read that applications will be opening soon and I want to make sure that we don't miss the deadline. She is not sure what she would like to pursue in college yet. She likes Math a lot. I think because it come easy for her and tries to stay away from history and reading. She is very bubbly and loves to be around people. She is one social butterfly but very focused when it comes to school work. I am not sure what would be something good for her that she could explore. If you have any suggestions, I'll share those with her and look into it together. Thank you.

MMSS (Michigan Math and Science Scholars)
Hello, has anybody done the MMSS program at UMich in the past? If so, is it fun and worth the cost? Do you get to learn a lot? Is it boring? Do you get enough free time? The class about the statistics of happiness seems the coolest to me. Thanks!

Any humanities/social science research programs out there?
Hi everyone!
I'm interested in possibly doing some research in the humanities/social sciences realm (specifically history, psychology, and/or political science- my favorite subjects). I was wondering if there are any summer programs that have tracks for this as I know most research programs will be geared towards STEM subjects. Am I better off looking for independent opportunities/working with a professor at a local university? I'm a sophomore, so my options with programs might be limited anyway.

I recently got a full ride to both the ACLU Summer Advocacy Program and the University of Maryland AI4ALL camp. And they happen to overlap with each other. Has anyone had any personal experience/knowledge about these two camps? Which one should I go to?

NC Governor's School 2020
Hi everyone!
Is anyone else thinking (way too early) about whether they will get accepted to GS in 2020?![:)]( ":)")
I made it past the district level and an alum said I should be very proud! However, I fully expect to be rejected at the state level, so I am revealing my discipline only if I get accepted in March.
Nevertheless, applying was a great opportunity and I am already looking forward to hearing about the experiences of those accepted.
Congrats to everyone who's made it past their school district, and hope to hear from you here!
(Yes, you can use this thread to discuss roommates/campuses/etc in the spring even if I post my rejection.)
