Hi, I was accepted for the YYGS 2017 program, unfortunately can’t afford to attend since no aid was given… Will this look bad on my resume, any way to spin it for the admissions office
If you can afjord it, don’t do it. AO recognize that only the wealthier families can afford to drop 6K in the summer on a summer program. They won’t discount you if you didng. As long as you do something productive over summer, I’m sure you’ll be fine.
If you won’t attend, you can’t take any credit for the program because you won’t gain any experience from YYGS. There is nothing for you to spin in your apps. Getting accepted alone does not mean much.
You did not get any FA, so it means they think you can pay based on your family financial situation. Talk to your parents.
I was waitlisted for FMS - Has anyone else heard whether they’ve made it from the waitlist? Thx - really want to go.
