The average high school student has a lot on his/her plate. There are tests to study for, sports to practice, social events to attend and of course, college to think about.  Whether they’re the first in their family to be serious about going to college or they come from a long line of PhD’s and Master’s Degrees, navigating the college selection process can seem overwhelming.

The Summer Discovery program allows high school students to explore their college options and prepare for the transition into college life. Summer Discovery gives students the opportunity to participate in college activities, take classes, play sports, and meet new friends all before they even graduate from high school. For students interested in learning more about some of the highly accredited schools in the country, (UCLA, Johns Hopkins, and the University of Michigan, just to name a few!) this unique program is a must! Students can get a real-life “trial run” and get to know the campus, see what it is like to live independently and balance classes and a social life, and exit the program prepared and confident to make a decision about which college is right for them.

This incredible internship opportunity also provides guidance for students who have always wanted to travel abroad and attend schools all over the world. While other students are having a lazy summer, Summer Discovery interns could be exploring a different country!  Students will live on campus and experience the true college dorm life with pre-selected roommates, an opportunity that many first time college students do not have. Summer Discovery offers a more diverse pre-college experience program than any other organization, and has been privately owned by the Musiker Family for more than 50 years. Year after year, parents, students and educators have raved about the incredible experience Summer Discovery offers. Interns are a vital part of the university community, and are lead by expert staff who has been with the program for years and strive to make interns feel welcomed, prepared, educated, safe and well-supervised.

On the weekends, students can participate in scheduled trips, events, and activities that allow them to become familiar with the area and strengthen relationships with other interns. There are different sessions for each school, ranging from a six-week program to a two-week program, all held in June and July. For high school students who already have college on the brain, this chance of a lifetime internship is an excellent way to get to know some of the world’s best universities, and helps them feel confident and prepared to take on the next chapter of their lives.
