Three of our previous Summer Research Program students became freshman at Vanderbilt University this year! Indeed, many of our students from our first summer program are currently attending college. Out of our ten high school students, one is currently a sophomore chemical engineering major at the University of Arkansas and plans to attend graduate school, three are attending Vanderbilt University as freshman, and one is attending the University of Arkansas as a freshman in engineering. Four of our students chose to participate in AP courses at their high schools following participation in our program and plan to attend college upon graduation in 2011.
