<p>wouldn’t it show that you have passion for the school much like a legacy status does and it would also show dedication to academics to be willing to spend the majority of the summer studying at a university.</p>
<p>also, do you think that a 191 PSAT score will hinder my chances of getting accepted for it. they ask for a copy of the PSAT scores.</p>
<p>No, they dont care about who goes to the summer program. It looks good in the fact that you did something useful with your summer (especially if you get good grades too), but no, it definitely will NOT help you a lot.</p>
<p>and dont worry about the PSAT score. I had like a 194 and I got in. And seriously, there were people there with scores probably of 120 who got in. Don’t worry</p>
<p>I think they would value more a job, volunteering, traveling, or a program that’s harder to get into. THey basically know that they’re summer program is just like, a gimmick to make money.</p>
<p>Am I wrong in assuming that these summer classes are only for students that are still in high school?</p>
<p>Lucifersam –</p>
<p>There were many college students at the Yale summer program last summer. Some were actually from Yale, but it seemed like most were from other colleges.</p>
<p>Hmm . . . I might call the Admissions Office about that . . . I’m looking to take summer classes SOMEWHERE, perhaps at the school I am at right now, perhaps not, as long as I can gain some respectable college credit from them. I did a search for the Yale Summer Program and it seems to me as if only students that are going to Yale the next Fall semester or have already been enrolled would be able to take summer classes there. (Or high school students of course.) If you have any info about it yourself, or if anyone else does, please email me or reply on here. It would be nice to take summer classes at one of the two universities that I’m hoping to transfer to.</p>
<p>WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU WANT TO SPEND THE SUMMER IN <strong><em>NEW HAVEN</em></strong> ?</p>
<p>So they can use you for their next viewbook photoshoot?
(cause summer is the only time new haven looks decent and all the real yalies are so gone…)</p>
<p>If you’ve got the $$$ to attend, spend it more wisely.</p>
<p>If you really want to take college courses, I suggestg your local community college. At least there, you’ll be working with real college students… And it’s about 10 times cheaper…</p>
<p>On second thought, go if you are not sure you’ll get to go to college at an elite ivy or don’t want to attend one after high school. The classes are much smaller than in the winter, albeit all the hot shot professors are gone…and the Yalies. And maybe you’ll meet some cool kids your age or get into a summer romance–very covenient–…but that goes for all decent summer prgrams.</p>
<p>How many dual enrollment classes has the average Yale applicant had, I should have taken 8 by the time I apply?</p>
<p>Also if you want to ake classes at Yale and are in college they still allow it, look at the yale summer program admissions website. I think it is under the admissions category on the main page.</p>
<p>Haha, sleet, I would love to spend my summer in New Haven. From what I hear and have seen, the campus is very pretty, and I really love the weather and the atmosphere of all of the parts of the Northeast that I have been to in the past, other areas of Connecticut included.</p>
<p>So, it does seem as if students from other unis can take summer courses there, but does having to apply entail a battle of any sort or is it very easy to get accepted into the summer program? Is EVERYONE accepted, and if not (which I assume is the case) then what would the acceptance rate probably be like? I wholeheartedly believe that I can pull a 4.0 my spring semester, but for my fall semester my grades were horrible by any standards, so I don’t want to plan to be at Yale this summer and then get rejected. </p>
<p>If you guys have any other info at all about the Yale summer session that isn’t on the site (or at least isn’t easy to find on the site), then please let me know.</p>
<p>I would call Yale about this but at the moment pretty much all of my friends (who have cell phones, and I don’t) are home for the holidays while I take a class for the winter already to raise my GPA.</p>
