Drexel summer internship

High School Summer Research Internship Program



Can someone tell me more about this program? Someone who's actually gone there. Is it good? Do you stay at Drexel university? What kinds of things are you allowed to research?
Im interested in nueroscience. Would they have a slot for nueroscience research there?

Well it's an internship, meaning you get the mulaa (money) of $1500, so yea it's gotta be competitive. I'll be damned if it's not though.

Note that it says on the website you should be an area high-schooler...so from around Drexel somewhere? Maybe you guys should email the director about what exactly that means.

Pretty sure area high schools = Philly and suburbs.

^I overlooked that aspect b/c of my hyperness of the idea of attending an internship, if i got in.
In any case, I emailed the coordinator and will report what she says ASAP on this thread. So other people do not have to worry about doing so.

I think they are limiting it to area students because it doesn't mention housing at all.

I applied to this program last year and even though I'm from NC, I would have had transportation and housing in Philly since all of my family lives there. I had all As and some good ECs but they turned me down. I really think it was because of location so I don't think they allow anyone other than local area students to attend, but everyone should apply just in case.
