For the programs that use rolling admissions (start looking at apps when they come in), yes.
I would assume so. Applying late is never good which is why i'm not expecting an acceptance :/ It's definitely worth a try though! Good luck to everyone!
My professor was the one that pushed me into doing a summer research program in the first place 
Anyone else ever had this issue? I have 1-week before I have to submit.
I seem to be having trouble getting on of my professors to write my LOR
I have until February 5th, but you're right, it's probably too late to get accepted. I also did give them 2 weeks to write my letter. One already finished his and the other one I suppose is just busy. I would have gave them more time, but I just recently found out about the program. I'll be much more prepared next year
Is this program HSCI internship? I'm also applying to that program, but still waiting for one of my professor's to write the letter. Everything else is done. He said he would upload it by tomorrow.I have until February 5th, but you're right, it's probably too late to get accepted. I also did give them 2 weeks to write my letter.

No, im applying to the Johns Hopkins internship program. Is HSCI Harvard? Good luck, I hope you get in!
Regardless, my application is finally sent! Now to see if im going to be the lucky 1.7% that makes it.

Side note: My professor started and completed his letter within an hour or two. I'm not sure if that's good or not
Good luck man! I'm applying next year...Finally got the letter from my professor. I'm done with my application for HSCI!

The 2 semester that year. (Possibly 3 semesters if you took summer classes). If you notice, this way they can get a general direction of your academic performance, eg., an upward trend showing progress
Great thanks!!!!!!!!!
Almost certainly for URM, do you mean for over-represented groups though?
Hmmm....random Q. Obviously, who really knows, as its pretty much a giant lottery in the end, but what do you guys think? Do I have a shot at Rockefeller SURF?
Basic Research Stats:
Junior
cGPA: 3.9 (plus a scholarship or two) (first-year dragged me down a bit
Research Experience: 4 active years (1 part-time full year (during HS), 4 summers (2 on competitive full-time sumer research fellowships), 1 full-year 3rd year thesis) - spanning 3 different labs in disparate fields (stem cells and cancer, epigenetics, chemical biology), starting since Grade 10; 5 semi-/fully-independent projects associated with these, plus leading various research seminars and research side-projects, etc. + signed onto 4th year neuroscience thesis
1 First-Author Published Paper (written summer after first year) in medium-ranking international journal (IF~4) + currently on the way to a 2nd first-author paper
Editor-in-Chief of 2 post-doc reviewed undergraduate research journals over two years; both of which are indexed in various worldwide databases
+ founded new university-wide cross-disciplinary undergraduate research journal endorsed and funded by university president and heads of every faculty, and to be integrated into course curriculum across university
Numerous personal self-directed research “design” projects (largely for challenge and fun) that references can attest to…for instance: in-silico designing 3 completely new therapeutic drugs (in first year) on my own with predicted higher efficacy and lower toxicity than marketplace counterparts, designing and modelling a de novo novel tissue-embedded protein from scratch for anti-thrombosis, designing a silicon-based protein, and designing a novel artificial intelligence neural network and associated engineered biosynthetic neural architecture both distinct from previous literature.
Fairly wide breadth of courses (in a very selective integrative PBL science program (4.5% acceptance rate)), but primary focus on biochemistry, molecular biology, and research design.
Very strong Reference Ls from Chair of Research of the Faculty of Medicine from major North American research university, another from a dean, and another from another prof (emeritus).
Plus a bunch of other stuff, like founding a new university orchestra, etc. but that's the general gist of it “research-wise”.
I think my letter of intent was pretty solid and creative, but who really knows lol. These kinds of things are fairly subjective.
But, my app was marked as “complete” on Friday (day before deadline) for various reasons, so idk how that will affect it, given that Rockefeller reviews in order of when apps are completed.
Thoughts?
Yep, they do
Good luck to everyone! 26 days away from knowing!Did anyone else apply to Johns Hopkins SIP? If so, you should have a email saying there is 1,398 applicants. They typically have 100 spots from what i know soooooooo we have a 7% chance of getting in
