The Stanford Medical Youth Science Program (SMYSP) Summer Residential Program is an annual all expense paid five-week science- and medicine-based enrichment program that takes place annually from mid-June to late July, and is held on the Stanford University campus. The Summer Residential Program bolsters student’s science skills while introducing them to a host of health-related careers. Students live in a residence house on the Stanford campus for the entirety of the program, and family members are invited to visit each Sunday morning.
New in 2015: The entire SMYSP application is now online! There are two parts to our online application that must be completed (a Stanford Pre-Collegiate Institutes Preliminary Application and an ApplyWeb Online Application.) A complete application will also include an unofficial transcript (uploaded by the student) and two letters of recommendation (which are uploaded by the recommender).
The 2015 Summer Residential Program will operate from June 21 - July 26, 2015. All participants must be available to attend the entire program.
