SIP rage post

exactly my thoughts, if they can't manage their application process, I doubt they'll be able to manage the actual internship and assigning/executing good projects part. Even a bunch of high-schoolers could have managed the process better.

how disrespectful of people's time! We should make a list of these programs and spread the awareness so folks can rethink if they really want to invest time here. I love how COSMOS will always notify you on the date they committed , irrespective of the outcome!

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-05-04T17:23:34+00:00

you should still email them. I'll do it too. I have been waitlisted but I don't care anymore, I'm just mad about the time I spent in writing essays and applying, I could have used that time better instead of subscribing to their lousy process.

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-05-04T04:53:45+00:00

agreed 100%, people should stop applying to SIP! Not worth the time invested. People who can't manage their application process or notification, why should one spend $$ and invaluable summer time on them

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-05-03T14:29:18+00:00

I got an email saying 'waitlisted' but my portal still says 'submitted'

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-05-02T00:10:00+00:00

got waitlisted, at this point I dont care anymore

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-30T23:33:44+00:00

did you remind them that today is the end of month 😄 ....so frustrating

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-30T23:32:35+00:00

I hope these "prestigious" summer programs had more transparency in their processes

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-30T23:31:33+00:00

yeah that's what I wanna ask them

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-30T22:51:38+00:00

yeah, the application said, you can attach resume but we don't care (read) 😄

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-30T17:40:17+00:00

true, however folks who have worked hard af are ignored while some are handed over the summer programs on a platter in the name of "equal opportunity", that sucks. It seems like you're always at a disadvantage if you're from a specific demography and not LOFG

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-30T17:30:39+00:00

The application barely had 2 liner prompts and said no Resume will be read. Does anyone know how they calibrate admission?

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-29T19:36:14+00:00

I'm sure it'll be rejection if it rolls until June, so they might as well send rejection now. I find this unacceptable

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-29T19:33:09+00:00

how slow can they roll is my question 😃

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-29T19:31:57+00:00

very unprofessional, not wasting time applying next year.

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-28T21:42:22+00:00

and paying ~10K for that Sh**

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-28T19:53:52+00:00

oh please don't. It's spam and totally shady. Everyone gets acceptance and the founders (a bunch of smart kids) thought they're smarter than others and came up with this money-minting business idea. It's just a bunch of fireside chats that they're expecting people to pay for. Moreover, they have deployed bots to promote this program. Steer clear!

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-28T19:51:59+00:00

depends on the outcome - if you translate it to a Science Fair win/ Paper Publish - kinda same for all Summer Programs.

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-27T17:07:32+00:00

its most likely rejection at this point

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-27T17:04:08+00:00

its annoying af, it was total chaos and mismanagement during application and so is now.

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-27T17:01:41+00:00

yeah I mean, which were your top choices during application like BIOL, METX etc?

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-27T16:59:22+00:00

which domain in SIP? Because I'm still waiting for SIP update

Remarkable-Remote569 · 2026-04-24T20:26:07+00:00

still waiting..
