Program Description
Summer@Brown University is about challenge, discovery and new friends.
Each summer, talented high school students from around the world come to Brown for a true residential college experience.
Come to Summer@Brown to prepare for college success, make new friends, and experience life in the Ivy League.
Academics are at the core of the Summer@Brown experience, with over 250 courses to choose from, in a variety of formats and course lengths – everything from the cutting edge of arts and science to career-oriented courses offered in one- to seven-week sessions.
A Summer@Brown experience goes far beyond the classroom. Outside of class, you will make friends, attend events and social activities on campus, and have time for summer fun. Preparing for college continues with Summer@Brown’s extensive Co-Curricular activity calendar – Workshops and presentations designed specifically to help you succeed with your college applications, and better prepare you for the transition to college-level academics.
