--Summer HSSP--

Student registration for Summer HSSP has just opened!

Summer HSSP is a seven-week academic program that runs on Sunday
afternoons, beginning on July 8th and ending on August 19th. Classes
-- both academic and non-academic -- are offered in 3 timeblocks
between 11 am and 5 pm.

Summer HSSP is open to rising 7th graders through rising college
freshmen, and offers exciting classes such as Circuit Theory, Cell
Biology, and The Psychology and Physics of Music. Check out the
catalog and register at <http://esp.mit.edu/learn/HSSP/>.

Classes will be assigned using a lottery, so take your time to look
through the catalog -- all registrations before June 22nd will be
considered equally. You can express preferences for up to three
classes per time block, and a lottery will determine your classes. The
lottery stage of registration will close at 11:59 pm on June 22nd. We
expect to publish results of the lottery on June 25th.

The total cost for Summer HSSP will be $40, which covers all seven
Sundays of classes. We offer generous need-based financial aid.


We hope to see you this summer! Email us at <summer-hssp at mit.edu> if
you have questions about this program.



--Delve--

Looking for a way to get college credit in high school? Interested in
showing colleges just what you are made of? Want to explore a topic
in-depth? Registration is open for Delve, ESP's AP preparatory course,
and we would love to have you join us for an exciting 26 weeks of
learning for just $250! Sign up today at
<http://esp.mit.edu/learn/Delve/index.html>.

Delve will offer classes for the Calculus, Physics, Chemistry,
Biology, and French AP exams during the school year, from
mid-September until May. Every Sunday, students will spend 10AM to 3PM
at MIT dedicated to one of these classes (with an hour long lunch
break in between).  Our classes can be taken as stand-alone classes,
not just in conjunction with AP courses at high schools.  You will
have the opportunity to take the AP in May with your school or with
our partner, Cambridge Rindge and Latin School.


If you have any questions about Delve, please feel free to email us
back at <delve at mit.edu>.
