This is still likely to be the case, but if we are successful is getting housing, we will have only about two dozen spaces available in the MIT dorms during the coming summer. These will be available to students who must have dorm space to permit them to participate in Mesh. Students who live in Greater Boston, or who can stay with friends or relatives in Greater Boston, will not be assigned a space in the dorms unless they can establish that they have no other place to stay. No financial aid will be available for residential costs. We will post a final decision on whether or not we will offer housing on this site at the same time we post the Mesh catalog and application materials.
Students can register for less than a full load at a reduced rate.
If you can borrow a textbook, or already own one, you don't have to buy another copy. There will be no financial aid available to help cover the costs of the residential program. Applications for Mesh will require a transcript, two letters of recommendations from teachers, and the usual biographical information. Admitted students will be required to submit health information and parental consent forms in addition to a personal behavior contract. Students willing and able to teach classes will be asked to submit the results of any AP exams they have taken.
