ADVICE FROM THE MENTORS
We are looking for motivated and curious applicants that can think and express themselves logically. You do NOT have to have a high GPA, previous lab experience, or be a superstar... just be you. Be sure to use your answers to tell us who you are.
Take your time to answer each of the application questions thoughtfully and thoroughly. You will be compared to all other applicants based upon the answers you give...make sure we learn about who YOU are and what you are interested in through your answers. Don't BS your way through the answers or give the answer that you think we want to read.
Incomplete sentences, spelling errors, and poorly thought-out responses will NEGATIVELY affect the review of your application as will a failure to adhere to the word limit. Therefore, to prevent mistakes, we STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you compose your answers in a word processing program, and then paste them into the application. Be sure to have an adult (e.g. your parents, high school counselor, or mentor) read through your application PRIOR to submission.
Use the 250 word limit! Don't miss an opportunity to tell us about yourself.
If you have questions, please ask! Please direct all questions to Dr. Amanda Purdy at tripinitiative@gmail.com. Please use "TRIP@WTHS’23" in the subject line of all emails regarding the 2023 program.
