Here at Duke we have been accepting applications since December and we are receiving more applications even earlier this year than last. We encourage you to apply for Duke Summer College for High School Students (grades 10 & 11) to earn academic credit, or Duke Summer Academy for High School Students (grades 9-12) for personal enrichment early while there is still room in the program of your choice.
The PREFACE Summer Program 2016 is a two-week
residential summer experience for talented high school sophomores and juniors
who will enter 11th or 12th grade in September 2016, from groups that have been
historically and traditionally underrepresented or underserved in science,
engineering, and technological fields, and are interested in pursuing careers
in engineering and technological professions.
To qualify, applicants must be entering the 11th or
12th grade in September, 2016. The PREFACE Selection Committee will
review each application and make its recommendation to the Project Director.
Criteria are high school academic performance, standardized test scores,
quality of essay, and recommendations. The program is limited to U.S. citizens
and permanent residents from underrepresented and underserved backgrounds.
The deadline is March 25, 2016. Applications will not
be accepted after that date. Annually, the number of applicants far exceeds
available funding. The maximum number of participants for 2016 is 24. Completed
applications and supporting documents should be sent to:
