I would encourage the application to IU’s summer program–as you mention, there is ample time for practice there and there is a serious concern for improving skills. I believe that IU’s summer program is not as competitive for admission as Meadowmount’s.

For a very comprehensive list of summer programs for string players, you could check the website violinist.com. There are probably around 100 listed there, but, of course, some would not allow/offer enough practice time or lessons for a serious student, and others may be too restrictive in their admissions (e.g. Aspen, MAW, Meadowmount, Perlman etc.).
