Circle in the Square is more useful for college kids, in my opinion, however, half of my group was made up of high schoolers. I don't see the point of spending money and being chaperoned around NYC when you still have so many years to come there. It is a great base for those wanting to come to the city soon, and I thought the high schoolers used it as a REALLY long vacation in the city more than serious training.
I also went to Walnut Hill Summer Music Program. Like Interlochen but in New England. They are located in Natick about a half hour outside of Boston and you are involved in three productions while you are there and full days of shows. Many that go during the summer audition and decide to go to the school after, which has many connections in dance/music to the greater Boston area. The sets and teachers were great, and really taught me discipline which is really what I needed at such a young age.

Go to OCU. Have friends who went and learned so much and had a blast. They really know musical theater.
I think I have the camps I'm applying to figured out. I'm definatly applying to Circle in the Squre. I also want to apply to one other camp you need to audition for. I've heard good things about Walnut Hill, so probobly there. If I don't get into either I'm going to SDM.
Edit://Can anyone tell me how Bucks County Summer Musical Theatre Ensemble is?

OCU's program is only for those who are serious about music and musical theatre.
Then...there's everyone else.
