School of The New York Times

I recently applied and was accepted to the Summer Academy at School of The New York Times (sorry, I know it is not a college). The ~6,000 dollar enrollment fee is obviously hefty for a two-week summer program, so I I want to make sure that attending is the right decision. For those who have done the program in the past—Is it worth it? What can I expect, and what was your experience? Finally, how will this program impact the rest of my life, if at all? As it is I am planning to attend, but I'd like more information and there's little to be found online (not including the official site). For those who are interested, I'd be doing the Creative Writing course. Thanks!
