<p>Hi im a sophomore, rising junior, and ill be doing this program over the summer. Exactly how good would this look on college app? I did get accepted for introduction to engineering which wouldve prbly been better, but my parents wanna see my relatives in belgium so i cant do the 1st session <em>sigh</em>…What would look better, this or VA Governor’s School for Math, Science, and Technology?</p>
<p>Pick the one that interests you more, not the one that “looks better.”</p>
<p>lol well i cant go to governors school cuz they didnt get my app for some reason. Still, I just wanted to know what wouldve looked better.</p>
<p>I don’t know how the governor’s program works, but in all honesty, EPGY is not one of the most competitive summer programs. It certainly improves your chances, but it’s hardly a hook. If you want a hook, do RSI (Research Science Institute). It’s free but extremely competitive</p>
<p>Almost any program that you have to pay for is not considered prestigious. The ones that are prestigious are extremely hard to get into (such as RSI).</p>
<p>are there any others besides RSI?</p>
<p>I’m going to the High school summer college at stanford. How good would that look on my application? (assuming I do well there) </p>
<p>I am currently a sophmore in high school.</p>
<p>It just show you that you have money to spend.</p>
<p>I got financial aid… but when they look at my record will they consider that as well?</p>
