Telluride Association Summer Program (TASP) 2011

<p>TASS 2011 UMICH
WOOT WOOT
just had to do that
=3</p>

<p>No UT program. Sadsies.</p>

<p>Ah! I am so nervous to get the news. Every time my phone pings for an email my heart literally skips a beat. </p>

<p>Any more good news today?</p>

<p>Check your spam box, it should already be there</p>

<p>So… How should you notify Telluride of your acceptance? Haha.</p>

<p>@Collegebound32, a brief email is the simplest and preferred notification method. They like electronic correspondence ;)</p>

<p>hahah mechenism, if I choose to attend TASP, then maybe I’ll see you lol</p>

<p>accepted :)</p>

<p>rejected off dat waitlistttttttt whatup
im actually kind of glad at this point because that whole process was so tedious and frustrating and made me not want to go! I’m pretty sure they weren’t even going to tell me because the supposed last day of hope for the waitlist came and went and i had to send THEM a rather tersely worded email so that they could tell me “oh btw we already made the list…nothing for you!” oh well! you win some, you lose some, or or sometimes like me you lose all of them when it comes to summer programs. at least now i can go to nyc to visit one of my best friends this summer!</p>

<p>Same as dovetail. Quite a journey it has been, I am thankful for all that I have learned, a bit disheartened by the fact that I was perhaps not as good as I wish I was. But it’s time to move on, and embrace my summer with open arms. Learning is not exclusive to TASP, and all those rejected will make the most of the 6 weeks that could have potentially been at TASP. Because if there is anything I value most from this experience, it’s that there are people out there exist who have open minds and the desire to grow as not only a thinker, but as an entire person. :)</p>

<p>Wish I could edit for grammar at the end there haha</p>

<p>youwrotethis, I don’t believe that I am as good as I wish to be in the slightest. I have questioned myself whether I am worthy to attend this summer program or not; I have a feeling that I won’t match the caliber of many people who I meet in Ithaca. Perhaps I have some sort of predisposition to inferiority complexes.</p>

<p>mechnesium, lighten up bro (or sis). Feeling inferior won’t help; at least nobody will ask you what you make on the latest SAT</p>

<p>“as good as I wish I was”
“inferior”
What makes a person inferior or superior to another?</p>

<p>I understand realizing the fact that you may not be AS well read or AS smart as other TASPers (such was the case for me), but what constitutes superiority?</p>

<p>This may well be the shortest Tasp thread in years. I wonder what happened to everybody this year.</p>

<p>I think that people are taking the “no pre-TASP communication” rule pretty seriously this year, which is probably a good thing.</p>

<p>Or not. hahah. Aren’t you guys excited?</p>

<p>So excited!! :slight_smile: one week! I can’t wait to meet everyone!</p>

<p>I can’t even describe how excited/anxious/nervous I am. Only one more week!</p>

<p>How many people apply each year to tasp and what’s the admission rate?</p>
