The big idea
Summer programs (academic camps, research internships, language immersion, study abroad) are a great use of summer. But there are tons. AI helps you find the right fit — and skip the wrong ones.
Some examples
- 'I am 15, love coding. What summer programs would fit me?'
- 'Help me decide between [program A] and [program B].'
- 'Are there free or low-cost summer programs in [field]?'
- 'How competitive is [program] and what would help me get in?'
Try it!
