| BTW, "IVY" league colleges have NOTHING to do with the "IVY" plants adorning the outside of the brick buildings. Found that out on every IVY league school tour we took!  | |

| RSI = Research Science Institute, a highly competitive and selective 6-week summer research program for 75 students, held at MIT (used to be MIT and Caltech, but I think the Caltech part is no more?). The students work directly with professors (or occasional grad students) on their active, on-going research projects. RSI attendance is sometimes seen as "automatic admittance" to MIT, but this is not the case. Qualifying for and successfully completing an RSI internship is indicative of having "the stuff" usually needed to qualify for admission to MIT, but it is not the *only* criterion considered. http://www.cee.org/rsi/index.shtml | |
