<p>I am a parent like you who would not hesitate to spend all he has for the sake of my children (like many of you looking into this program), received a nomination from the school principle (was excited to receive such a nomination for my daughter) she was 7 at the time. paid about $1200 for a one week camp (I am a physician) -did not have to pay for travel and accommodation- since we were about an hour form the camp.
Anyway … bottom line of the experience … I would NOT do it again … simply put it -a very very very expensive camp- like any other day camp … only difference is the name, the feeling of being special and being held in a hotel.
I would not call it a scam but it really feels like it is (at least from my perspective)
My sincere advice is :find some thing else for you precious child
Best of luck
