Summer classes for high school students
Skidmore's Summer Pre-College Program is a credit-bearing experience for high school students interested in exploring what they could be, study, and do in college. You'll be introduced to an authentic college experience – real classes, real credits, real residential life – with a support system that recognizes you're only just getting started.
Let's get Started
We welcome high-achieving, mature, and motivated high school students who share a common interest in preparing for college success. Prospective high school students from the US and abroad who are currently in their sophomore, junior, or senior year are eligible to apply.
