Pre-college summer programs have been a popular way for high school students to get a taste of the college experience. The last couple of years were surely a setback for summer schools and pre-college programs, but with things looking steady in most parts of the world, some of the leading programs are back, and better than ever. These programs are also a great opportunity for colleges to create a community of learners, and possibly recruit suitable candidates in the forthcoming admission cycles. Pre-college programs are certainly more immersive than college tours or open days, they allow participating students to take a peek into the life of a college student and interact with faculties at the respective institutions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There are pre-college programs available across subject domains. From STEM-based programs<\/a> and performing arts, to <\/span>business<\/span> and medicine students are literally spoilt for choice. Each pre-college program is unique in its own way, as the universities offering them have a certain prowess of their own. The main objective behind these programs is to provide an experience to students<\/a> which allows them to seek beyond academics. These programs are holistically designed and delivered to provide a platform for students to come together and interact. Creation and innovation are fostered through group activities and networking. Some of the students go on to find lifelong friends through these intriguing programs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now that we have established how exciting these programs are, let\u2019s have a look at some of the best pre-college\/summer programs students must consider for 2022:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Brown University<\/h3>\n

Brown Pre-College Programs<\/a> are designed for high school students to explore the challenges and opportunities of the college experience. Students enjoy the excitement and responsibility that comes from balancing college-level academics and enriching social activities\u2014without the pressure of formal grades.<\/span><\/p>\n

In one of their 1- to 6-week online and in-person courses, students get to know the best of Brown. As an Ivy League school known for its community of independent thinkers\u2014one that values and respects student voices.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Harvard University<\/h3>\n

Harvard offers an academically rigorous on-campus program<\/a> for exceptional high school students. The Harvard Pre-College Program is exclusively on campus and offers over 100 courses. Students thrive in a dynamic, immersive and supportive academic environment alongside peers from around the world. When class is not in session, students can participate in creative and social activities. Join in co-curricular activities that stimulate your mind. And take time to have fun and get to know their peers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Whether students are undecided about potential areas of study or want to take a deeper dive into subject they love, the Pre-College Program can help them find what really excites them.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Carnegie Mellon University<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

4.\u00a0New York University<\/h3>\n

The six-week Pre-College program for credit has over 30 academic options depending on interest. This is one of the most challenging and rewarding pre-college programs in the U.S., with all that NYC and NYU offer. The Tisch School of the Arts is a four-week residential program for credit for aspiring musicians and artists. If a shorter, more cost-effective, non-credit option is desirable the NYU STEP (Science and Technology Entry Program) could be a great choice. Another option is the Urban Journalism Workshop, a 10-day boot camp for writers at no cost. For young, motivated ladies, the non-credit STEM program is rigorous and rewarding. These and more could be worth exploring for choice, flexibility, and individuality in summer choices in one of the greatest cities in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n
