For more than 60 years, Syracuse University has offered high school students the opportunity tolearn about potential careers and college majors through its renowned pre-college program, Summer College. That commitment will expand this Summer, when the College of Professional Studies welcomes a diverse student body by providing financial incentives to military-connected students currently in high school. The veteran and military discount for Summer College provides a 50% discount on tuition fees as well as program and technology fees for each course enrolled in the 2023 Summer College program.
In Summer College, students can explore potential college majors and academic interests by taking one (or more!) of the over 100 credit or noncredit-bearing college-level courses taught by expert Syracuse University faculty and instructors. From July through August 2023, high school sophomores, juniors and seniors can experience college life on campus, online or in a hybrid format during 6-week, 3-week, or 2-week sessions.
High school students from more than 55 countries and 50 states have enrolled in Syracuse University’s pre-college program, and 98% report that their experience prepared them for academic life and beyond. Students leave the program with a greater sense of independence and confidence, better prepared for college, and with a unique differentiator on their college applications.
The mission at the College of Professional Studies is to provide access to education and to help transform lives. Summer College is where that transformation begins for many high school students. The Summer College tuition discount to military-connected dependents and grandchildren is an extension of Syracuse University’s commitment to serving the men and women who served and are currently serving our country. To be the number one university for veterans and military-connected students, we continue to make Syracuse University truly a university accessible to all.
Applications are currently open and will close on May 1, 2023. To learn more about Summer College, join un upcoming virtual information session. Apply early! There are limited seats in each section and courses will fill quickly.
Discounts and scholarships cannot be combined. There is no deadline to be eligible for a discount. To apply for a discount, students will answer supplementary questions on the application and may be asked to provide proof of service if military connected.
