The
University of Mississippi offers Summer College for High Schools students
both first and second summer sessions. It includes programs
in various academic areas including Liberal Arts, Engineering, Health Professions,
Business Administration, Exercise Science, Journalism, Theatre Arts and Creative Writing.
The goal for the entire Summer College is to
prepare the student to succeed in college while broadening their
intellectual and cultural foundation through in-depth study in selected fields
of interest. Each student takes two courses in areas of
his or her own choice, earning 6 hours of college
credit. All Summer College students will earn an additional
hour of college credit by enrolling in EL 153: Sports
Conditioning. This course will be taught by Exercise Science
faculty and will allow a student to explore different recreational
activities while helping students prepare their own fitness development program.
Exploring sessions are scheduled every day for the students
to investigate many other areas. Individual appointments can be
arranged so students may meet one on one with particular
professors and professionals. Any student who has a minimum
of 25 on the ACT or the SAT equivalent and
a 3.5 on 10 credits of the College Prep Curriculum
OR a 3.2 on 15 credits of the College Prep
Curriculum is eligible. In addition to the above requirements,
a nomination by the principal and a teacher recommendation are
required. Each program may admit up to 25
students. Program Cost: Subject to change from year to year. Based on cost of tuition, housing and meals. Scholarships and financial aid are available
