I do agree with Savvas (message included below). I am Mexican, I am the adviser of a new student-group of Mexican Mathematica fans ( http://www.matecmatica.blogspot.com/ ) and I would love to send at least one of my brilliant students to this school. They do have great projects. However our student-group is totally new, we are just finishing the administrative procedure in our university (http://www.cem.itesm.mx ) for registering as an official group, therefore we do not have any money yet, and we cannot send a student this summer.

However, I have a couple of questions: 1) Why does the school cost $2500? 2) There seem to be some scholarships available, but sending an email to Wolfram Research I was told that they are offering a student rate of (only) $1000, thus barely covering the expenses and that does not cover the plane tickets I guess. This amount is prohibitive for international participants, even for EU citizens (due to the "strong" euro), therefore I don't think I will even consider applying, despite the fact I would really love to participate ... :-( Any comments on this (especially from Wolfram Research) are welcome.
