Well, here you go:

http://www.ucop.edu/cosmos/

That's the main website for cosmos.

Anyway, I applied for both. My mom said that if I get accepted to Cosmos, I will go there, but if I don't, I will go to ATDP.

As for Cosmos, it's this one program where you go to a college and live there for a month. There, you take classes (called clusters) during the week, and play on the weekends. I chose to go to UC Santa Cruz. The clusters I applied for (which I will only be able to get into one) are Astronomy, Astrophysics, and Video Game design. Out of my 3 choices, I will be accepted into one. The reason why it is a called a "cluster" is because there are several professors that will teach the broad area. As of 23 April, I don't know what my status is. They have neither accepted nor rejected me.

Also, has anyone taken the STAR test yet?

2008/04/24 23:32:22 PDT by axu

My sister's going to take that soon...

2008/04/24 23:38:34 PDT by axu

Oh, about COSMOS, I think I saw a brochure of that somewhere...
It looks cool, but I think I'll stay with ATDP for now...

2008/05/01 16:03:34 PDT by jramseier

hahaha...i don't have STAR testing anymore...because now i go to a private school...but my sister has them next week.

2008/06/01 13:48:50 PDT by mlam

about COSMOS, I was supposed to find out if I get accepted or not about 4 days ago. For the time being, they haven't told me. I still don't know whether I'm supposed to go to COSMOS or ATDP this summer...
