Speaking to Mehmet specifically, My friends and I are running a similar initiative (started up this year) and think that you could help us out immensely. Would you mind hopping onto a call with us to discuss how you picked up so many students? It would help us make a larger impact.
My internship at U of M was in-person. It started off virtual for 3 months due to COVID-19, and I prepared and presented a research poster at a conference. When I could go in-person, I went to the lab 2-4 times a week for the next 8 months, where I learned some general lab techniques.
Never say that, if you put your mind to it and work hard you can achieve anything! Also, the college apps process is so random. Let me know if you have any specific questions.
Hello, thanks for sharing your background. I am currently a sophomore in Highschool and coincidentally am trying to turn my high school’s club that I started into a non-profit so that I can expand it nationwide to many high schools in order to have many highschooler’s learn useful skills through meeting working with others in the club (I am trying to be broad intentionally with what I’m saying). I just am interested in what process did you personally go through to start a non-profit? How did you get the attention of news stations for your non-profit? Also, how did you build up interest in the service you were advertising in your non-profit related to tutoring to students in order to get new members?
Hello, starting a nonprofit from scratch is a very long and daunting process, and we'll probably have a video out on the entire process in the near future. To briefly touch on your questions, the process I went about to start the nonprofit was forming an idea and my initial plan, and then gathering some friends to join and starting up. We weren't officially a nonprofit until a couple months in, so don't make that a priority. Focus on providing your service to those who need it. As for news stations, they reached out to us, and we later established a department to handle PR. To build interest, we used a lot of social media platforms, and as I said earlier, I started with my inner circle of friends and moved outwards as we grew. Hope this helps!

Hello, we're definitely planning on making a video on research opportunities at Stanford & other top universities, so make sure notifications are turned on & stay tuned1
Personally, I wouldn’t recommend the IB program because it’s too much work and all of the exams are in May of your senior year (after college decisions are out). I’d instead focus on taking available AP classes and balancing your junior and senior years.
Personally I think IB is a horrible waste of time. I have had the privilege of taking both AP and IB classes at my school, and personally I valued the AP classes much more than those of the IB. IB classes go into unnecessary depths and take away SO much of your time, AP covers things that are actually relevant for college and it’s not as slow paced as the IB program with unecesary exams and assignments that are REQUIRED for your diploma. Unless you’re aiming to go to school internationally then I wouldn’t recommend IB.
Was honors us history or AP us history an option for you in 9th grade? Just wondering because I took onlevel history freshman year instead of honors or AP (honors everything else) and was nervous about this.
No, we only had regular US history. I took AP in 10th grade, but one of my friends self studied APUSH in 9th grade. So, if you want to get ahead there may be options to.
You should definitely try to have some honors, either use strong wording to turn some of your extracurriculars into honors or spend the rest of your junior year working on them.
Hello- Congratulations on getting into your dream school. Just wanted to know how can we get recognition from media like fox news or any other local newsgroups?
Wow, so impressive and focused . Stanford will be lucky to have you. Seems like a good match- medically - you’ll love the warm weather for a change.
I just watched your 'Reading Admissions profile' video, and I cannot believe Reader #1 said they were on the fence about you attending Stanford!

We'll set something up if you're willing.
How did you do the internship at university of Michigan? Your extracurriculars are incredible
My internship at U of M was in-person. It started off virtual for 3 months due to COVID-19, and I prepared and presented a research poster at a conference. When I could go in-person, I went to the lab 2-4 times a week for the next 8 months, where I learned some general lab techniques.
@@thecollegetreehouse how were you able to sign up for the research?
@@aleksandrap2137 I cold emailed 20+ professors asking for research opportunities until one responded with an offer.
@@thecollegetreehouse Hello! Can you link your BCAP program internship?
@@thecollegetreehouse Also, how did you get ur nonprofit recognized by FoxNews and many other outlets?
I learned one thing watching this and that is that I have no chance at any ivy league

A more important question, how did you pay.
That's a question I still haven't answered yet!
If your parents make under 150k stanford covers your full tuition :) they’re very friendly when it comes to financial aid

Reply if yes, we’ll set it up
Hi, I'm really inspired by the work you did here. How did you end up getting an in-person internship at UMich? Was it also through cold emailing?
Yes, it was through cold emailing - at first, I didn't get responses, but eventually I landed a position!
Hey, would you be able to create a video on how you got the research opportunity at Stanford :)

How were you able to get the Stanford internship?
Cold emailing
should i do the IB program??? they offer it at my school but i don't know if it is worth it. i am a sophmore planning ahead lol.

How'd you get on the news?

please consider, how I can join the research internship in the summer.
Cold email and explain to professors why you like their lab specifically
i have no honors. do i have chance to get into stanford this year, if i make strong another parts of my application?
You should definitely try to have some honors, either use strong wording to turn some of your extracurriculars into honors or spend the rest of your junior year working on them.
Hello- Congratulations on getting into your dream school. Just wanted to know how can we get recognition from media like fox news or any other local newsgroups?
Hi, Fox News actually reached out to us. It's more about trying to help as many people as possible, and naturally the news & media will follow.
