Cornell University's award-winning "Summer College Programs for High School Students" offers talented high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors the opportunity to study at Cornell for one, three, four, or six weeks, earn an average of three to six credits, take college courses with leading Cornell faculty members, explore careers and majors, attend admissions workshops, and much more.

Students may select a program from one or more of the following exploration areas: architecture; art; business; CollegeSuccess; computing and information science; engineering; humanities; law and politics; life sciences; media; medicine, science, and biological research; psychology; veterinary medicine; and writing.

Summer College is a wonderful opportunity for high school students to experience college life, make some great friends, and prepare for the future. At the end of the program, students often say it's been the best summer of their lives.
