GSSM Accepting Applications for Class of 2010
November 25, 2007
The South Carolina Governor's School for Science and Mathematics (GSSM) is accepting applications from rising high school juniors now through February 1 for its two-year, residential high school program.
GSSM is highly selective, taking into consideration courses taken, grades, class rank, standardized test scores, teacher recommendations and extracurricular activities. The School considers not only aptitude but also proven performance and demonstrated interest in science and mathematics.
Established in 1988, GSSM has graduated more than 1,000 South Carolina students who have gone on to become physicians, engineers, lawyers, business leaders and researchers, just to name a few.
GSSM graduates are better prepared for college because of the combined experience of residing on campus, attending advanced-level courses and experiencing first-hand the exciting world of scientific research.
Along with a comprehensive academic schedule, students participate in field trips, a three week "mini-mester" each January and six weeks of mentored summer research.
