Summer programs for low income HS kids

<p>Both of my kids have attended the UCONN Exploring engineering program ([SCHOOL</a> OF ENGINEERING – UNIVERSITY OF CONNECTICUT](<a href=“http://www.engr.uconn.edu/engineering2000.php]SCHOOL”>http://www.engr.uconn.edu/engineering2000.php)). </p>

<p>My DS went last year during the summer between Jr and senior year. After attending this program, UCONN became his top choice of schools. He will be entering this fall for Mech eng.
We just picked up my DD this afternoon. She is between sophomore and junior year and is trying to decide between Engineering and Business. She had a great time.</p>

<p>It is 4 nights (Sun-Thurs) and costs $500. I know it’s not free but I think it is very reasonable compared to some programs out there.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
