<p>Hi you guys! </p>
<p>I was recently accepted into the Academy of Business’s Summer Business Institute. I was hoping to receive a full scholarship, but instead, received a partial scholarship. The tuition fee I’m looking at now is $2,000. What do you think, you guys?</p>
<p>Is it worth it?</p>
<p>Here’s a copy of paste of what their website says about the program:

Summer Business Institute (SBI)</p>
<p>Using a combination of traditional and creative hands-on educational techniques, SBI is a five-to-seven week program that targets mostly high-potential low-opportunity students 10 to 19 years of age from over 146 inner city middle and high schools each year. SBI participants are hosted on the campuses of the University of Southern California (USC); California State University, Los Angeles (CSULA); California State University, Dominguez Hills (CSUDH); California State University, Fullerton (CSUF); University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) (added in 2007); and Loyola Marymount University (LMU) (Added in 2008).</p>
<p>At the end of the program, students receive up to 10 units of high school credit through various school districts. Participants are provided with over 225 hours of instruction by MBA professionals and qualified instructors, and are lectured daily by prominent corporate and civic leaders. In addition, they participate in college preparation workshops, receive 30-40 hours of mentoring from volunteer trainers, read the Los Angeles Times and Wall Street Journal daily, and participate in weekly field trips to over 21 Fortune 500 corporations where they meet with senior executives in boardrooms and learn about their fields of expertise. </p>
<p>SBI activities include hands-on projects related to the stock market, finance, and all aspects of entrepreneurship. In group settings, students manage and track a $100,000 fictitious stock portfolio on StockTrak, and prepare a business plan for a real start-up using MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Business Plan Pro from Palo Alto Software. At the end of the program, students present and pitch their business plans in PowerPoint format to a panel of distinguished business leaders and are awarded over $20,000 in prize money for the highest returns on investment in the Stock Market Competition, the best Written Business Plans, and best Oral Business Plan presentations. Furthermore, students engage in lessons in personal finance, leadership development, core values, career development, and pre-college planning.</p>
<p>I’d love any feedback from you connoisseurs of summer programs! Thanks again ahead of time :)</p>
