Frequently Asked Questions

The program is open to qualified high school students in the US currently in their sophomore, junior, or senior year. Pre-College students come from across the country and the world, from large cities and small towns, from public and private schools, from different backgrounds and with a wide range of interests and aspirations.

The approved courses open to high school students are foundation-level courses offered through Â鶹Æƽâ°æ's summer session for college students.

Residential students must enroll in two courses. Commuting students may enroll in one or two courses. Pre-College enroll in a maximum of two courses.

All courses carry full Â鶹Æƽâ°æ College credit, generally transferable to any other college or university.

Pre-College students are required to attend all class sessions throughout the program. The scheduled class times cannot be changed for individual schedules. If a student is unable to fully attend their class on the scheduled days and times, the student will not be eligible to participate in the class or program. 

The pace of summer study is quick and the projects, reading, and writing are at a college level, so it can be challenging. But, students find that enthusiastic instructors and peers and built-in support resources keep everything manageable.
