College Confidential - View Single Post - BU RISE - Research Internship in Science and Engineering

Since I haven't seen very many threads on this, I thought I'd post one about Boston University's Research Internship in Science and Engineering program (RISE).

This is a 6 week residential science research program, similar to HSHSP or RSI I suppose, just not as prestigious. I was wondering if anyone on College Confidential knows anything about it or went to it?

In particular, I was interested in the research quality, and in the amount of time/help you get in creating your formal research report and poster. Has anyone entered in their research into Intel/Siemens type competition?

I just got accepted into RISE, but they want all the forms completed and turned in by 3 weeks. Would you accept the offer or decline, waiting for other programs? (I applied to RSI, Clark, Simons, Garcia, some local things, SSP, will do HSHSP, etc. Stats are decent, but I'm an Asian qq.)
