<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Yes, it appears as though the Stony Brook Program allows students’ own research, but you may consider contacting them to make sure.</p>
<p>OK I think the UCSD thing you’re talking about is here: [UCSD</a> Academic Connections Summer Pre-College Courses](<a href=“http://academicconnections.ucsd.edu/researchscholars/index.cfm]UCSD”>http://academicconnections.ucsd.edu/researchscholars/index.cfm)</p>
<p>The application is closed now, however. </p>
<p>Your last question I don’t really know the answer to. I think for YSP it’s not original research, you get assigned a mentor and you do the experiment they tell you to. This is based on what I’ve read on this forum. UConn Mentor Connection I really don’t know, I emailed the person who runs it but I’ve gotten no reply as of yet. The KEI Study Abroad you can do your own research with the help of the professor, but you aren’t replicating it.</p>
