NYLF: Explore STEM by Envision scam or good summer program?

DD20 received a nomination letter. Her bio teacher’s name is correct but the names of program alumni from her school are spelled incorrectly. I am leaning towards “scam”.

Not exactly a scam, but Envision has had some legal trouble. Either way, anything expensive is useless because it’s not competitive.
