@4beardolls, look up REU’s, also SPUR and see if your son qualifies for them. The apps for summer research programs are very early admissions, so you want to get a jump on them…I don’t know anything about the NIH programs, maybe somebody else can weigh in on them. My daughter did a spur program the summer after her freshman year, and it paid!! I think it was 3000 plus room board. Fast forward to med school and she had to pay more than that for a summer internship.
