UMass Summer Programs

UMass Summer Programs What are you doing this summer? We're offering programs for high school, incoming, and international students on our beautiful campus in the Pioneer Valley.

We accept applications from rising 10th - 12th graders who are in good academic standing and have no academic or disciplinary suspensions on their records. Seniors who will graduate in the spring are also welcome. Admissions decisions are made on a rolling basis, but it is best to apply early as programs fill up quickly. Applications are available on our website. To apply for Summer Pre-College Pr

ograms, we require:

> A written statement of interest: a brief, one-page statement describing why you want to attend Summer Pre-College at UMass Amherst and specifically the program you have chosen.
> An unofficial high school transcript.
> A letter of recommendation written by a teacher or guidance counselor who can speak to your skills, abilities, maturity level and academic accomplishments that make you a suitable candidate for the program you are applying to.
> A $35 non-refundable application fee

International students will be asked to provide additional information regarding TOEFL scores.
