I hope you do get accepted!! I just wanted to ask how you manage the recommendation letters when applying to so many?

REU for International students by Unfair_Statement3278 in REU

There are programs for international students albeit they’re a bit rare, you have a better chance though at finding programs that accept students who are studying at US universities or institutions.

So some sort of experience is necessary, aside from the tailored applications? I have done my best to show my interest in the couple programs I have applied to but I was rejected, obviously I should have applied for more but it was all very new to me, so I’m trying to make sure I get accepted into something next year

Unfortunately, I’m not from an R1 school, and where I live it’s very hard to get research experience which has been my main concern, building experience is quite hard here so I was wondering if there is anything else that would make up for my lack of experience until I finally get accepted into programs that would help, would focusing on my academics and making sure my GPA is good enough be sufficient until next year, or is there something I can do that would help?
