Hey guys! I'm a high school junior interested in finding a pre-college summer program to attend next summer. Can anyone recommend some great programs to look into? Any experiences or suggestions would be awesome! Thanks!
Hi there! It's great to hear that you're interested in pre-college summer programs. These programs offer valuable experiences and a good feel for college life. My child attended one before starting college, and it was a fantastic experience.
For top-tier programs, you can consider options like Harvard Summer School, Stanford Summer Session, and the Yale Young Global Scholars Program. These programs often come with a mix of coursework, workshops, and social activities which allow you to deep dive into certain academic fields.
If you're into the sciences and research, I would highly recommend checking out the Research Science Institute (RSI) and the Simons Summer Research Program. These programs provide hands-on research experience under the guidance of professional researchers.
Before choosing a program, think about your academic interests, program duration, and location preferences.
