<p>I’m not sure which states have such programs, or if they’re all at similar to Pennsylvania’s, but a Governor’s School can be a fantastic experience.</p>
<p>GS (in PA) is a five-week residential experience. Schools are offered for a variety of subjects, and each participant is awarded a full scholarship (valued at about 10,000 dollars). They are rather selective: only top students apply and less than 20 percent are admitted.</p>
<p>What state are you from? I recommend checking to see if they offer anything similar.</p>
