Programs for High School Students
Summer Programs for High School Students
For the past decade, students across the country and around the world have had their first taste of college life through a summer high school program at the University of Pennsylvania. The tree-lined walkways and historic buildings of Penn’s campus are the perfect setting for your summer experience.
The Penn Summer High School Programs, open to both residential and commuting students, offer an outstanding academic challenge in an Ivy League environment. Our programs are built around courses taught by Penn faculty, scholars, and distinguished outside experts. With small class sizes—usually between 15 and 20 students—you can be sure to get the individualized attention you deserve.
Young Scholars Program
The University of Pennsylvania's College of General Studies offers a special
opportunity for academically exceptional local high school students to take
college courses with Penn students and earn full college credit. Young Scholars
pursue their favorite discipline beyond the level offered by secondary schools,
or explore a field such as anthropology, economics, advanced calculus, philosophy,
linguistics, or experimental psychology.
