  Google's CSSI is a rigorous program for rising college freshman to get exposure to computer science before entering our first year. Google chooses 150 students throughout the US and Canada to attend the program at over 5 different sites at Google offices. Thousands of students apply for this amazing opportunity and Google awards 20 "Google Generation", $10,000 scholarships to select students, myself included. During the three weeks at Google, instructors introduced us to programming languages like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python. We also learn how to use Google App Engine and API's. At the end of the program, students were split into teams and had to develop a final project to present to the Google Engineers at the Cambridge office.
