Have you looked at SHI? DD did it, and it’s the one that you actually have to apply, and be accepted, to attend. I think there was a writing sample, teacher recs, etc. if you’re just looking for a great summer program, then I’m sure you’ll have a fantastic time, but if you’re also hoping that it just might help a teensy bit with your app, then look at SHI. I have heard from DD that way more than 5% of the kids got in - informally, possibly 30-40%. Disclaimer, this is one person’s perspective, but I believe that this is the humanities version of Stanford’s high intensity math camp (which also has above average admit rates).
