COSMOS Summer Opportunities: Making the most out of a few weeks of your summer! Mrs. Miranda & Morse-COSMOS Alumni
Open the door… Education is the door to opportunities! Want to… Make yourself the best possible applicant for college and scholarships? Make new friends? Make new experiences that you will never forget? Have fun? Then you need to be in a summer program! In HS and college!
Competing against the World How do you compare? Prove it! Build up your “resume” for colleges and applications. Make it clear that you take initiative and you want to be the best! Scholarships are flooded with “good” applicants and you need to stand- out.
How to stand out? Participate in summer programs and internships! Don’t spend your summer just “hanging out” at home.
What do you do? Hands-on activities Learn about what interests you Live on-campus – away from your parents! Meet lots of new people Make life-long friends! Try out college Have fun!
What students say… Best thing about their Summer Program “I spent a week outside of San Diego on a college campus and met other students from a different state.” “You also learn more about yourself and what you want from your college experience.” “Having that opportunity when you are still in high school can really make a difference in your life. You will feel like a new person.”
What students say… Fondest Memories “The whole enchilada is a fond memory. When I went home, I seriously cried because I didn't want to leave the place (and so did a lot of people). If you don't believe me, see for yourself.” “Random field trips to the beach, museums, and PetCo park for a free Padres game.”
Summer Programs In college, Morse-COSMOS alumni have: Spent 4-6 weeks at Harvard working in the lab Paid internship Harvard paid for the travel and housing! Gone to Italy for 4 weeks Visited the sites and to learn about the math, science, culture, language, and much more, involved! Worked in various UC labs Paid internship!
What do students have to say? COSMOS “You learn all sorts of things. You realize how “nerds” are the coolest people on earth. You break out of your shell... If you're from Morse, you are more than likely to get in free.” “…gives you a huge advantage on UC apps, opens you up to different types of people, YOURSELF and what you are capable of envisioning and achieving.”
