    Has anyone done or plan on doing a summer scholars program?

    I've always wanted to do one and since my trip to France and Spain was cancelled for this summer with the school, I found a program with the University of Miami where I'm going to be there for 3 weeks getting college credit in global politics. It's pretty exciting. Has anyone else done anything like that?

    I'm taking Business Law and Macroeconomics this summer :/ not the funnest courses ever but I wanna get them over with. Apparently BusLaw is a loooooot better over the summer - 70% final instead of a 100% one in regular term :O and a better prof, according to reports.

    I wanted to do National Youth Leadership but it was too much money for not enough time. :(

    Yea, It is in a sense...a complete rip off. They just give you a good recomendation. But theres so many better programs out there that are 1/4 the cost.
