@austinmshauri : Sorry, didn’t feel asking for a month and year was too much information. As the OP stated, s/he is a rising ninth grader and therefore that only offers a range of so many months/years. But thanks for the reminder.
OP-From the CBYX website, “Between the ages of 15 years and 18 years and 6 months at the start of the program.” Programs begin July-September. Do you qualify your sophomore, junior, senior, post-senior years? It would help others to offer advice if they knew the years you could even qualify to go.
