Hello everyone,
I was nominated twice by multiple adults in my school for Georgia State's Governor's Honors Program. The program is completely federally funded, competitive, and consists of a four-week intensive study in your major during the summer. I was nominated for mathematics and chemistry, which I understand would be attractive to the Naval Academy and possible nomination sources. However, the program takes place during the Naval Academy's summer STEM camp, which I was planning to apply for. I have heard the camp is a feeder for the academy from multiple people, but of course USNA says it is not. I consulted a teacher who is knowledgeable of the service academies, and she advised me to go for the Summer STEM camp. Furthermore, the GHP applications are due very soon, and to complete my application I must sign a commitment to the program in the event I am chosen. How should I proceed?
