<p>I’m not sure if this is EXACTLY what you’re looking for but here are some:
[Carleton</a> College: Carleton Summer Science Institute: The Carleton Summer Science Institute (CSSI) 2011](<a href=“http://apps.carleton.edu/summer/science/]Carleton”>Carleton Summer Science Institute | Carleton College)
@ Carleton College</p>
<p>and on the MITES page itself there are a few other programs (<a href=“MITES – MIT Introduction to Technology, Engineering and Science)–%5B/url%5D”>MITES – MIT Introduction to Technology, Engineering and Science)–</a> though I’m not sure if they’re all research based. I applied/accepted into MITES but I was also accepted into the one at UW-Madison, Carnegie Mellon SAMS ([SAMS:</a> The Summer Academy for Mathematics + Science](<a href=“http://www.cmu.edu/enrollment/summerprogramsfordiversity/sams.html]SAMS:”>http://www.cmu.edu/enrollment/summerprogramsfordiversity/sams.html)) and actually I suggest applying to the SAMS program because when I got my letter back, they actually “promoted me” into their AP/EA program and offerred me a full merit scholarship for the whole summer terms (I think ~$8000) so check that out!</p>
<p>Aside from that, apply to MITES- there were a few Asians in the program but not only that, out of the 1500 that applied, 80 were selected to MITES, 60 for this new weeklong program called E2@MIT (you can’t apply directly into the program, rather if you’re on the waiting list, you get to go here and I saw some pictures and there were A LOT of Asians as well as the other minorities) and then 60 more were invited to this online seminar which I heard was pretty cool!! Good luck!!!</p>
