The Summer 2024 Accelerate Pre-College Application is Open! - Northeastern University

We are pleased to share that the application is open for Northeastern’s Summer 2024 Accelerate Pre-College Programs! Our residential Boston and Oakland campus programs are taught by our internationally acclaimed faculty, allowing students to gain extensive, hands-on, experiential education in subjects including engineering, health sciences, ethics and emerging technologies, entrepreneurship, and more. 

The Application Process  

Our Summer 2024 residential programs are designed for rising juniors and seniors. We are looking for talented, highly motivated students who are passionate about the subject area and who are ready for a rigorous program. We mimic the Northeastern undergraduate application review process by performing a holistic review—examining all areas of the application (academic, extracurricular, etc.) equally. Application requirements include:   

  • Completed Online Application

  • Transcript: An unofficial high school transcript or report card.   

  • Personal statement: A short statement (maximum of 250 words) describing the student’s passion for the subject matter, motivation for enrolling in the program, and what they hope to gain from the experience.  

  • Recommendation: Students may submit a teacher or counselor recommendation, but this is not required.   

  • Financial aid information: The application includes an optional financial aid section for students to be considered for need-based aid awards. 

There is no application fee for the program. Admitted students who apply by the Priority Application Deadline, January 15 at 11:59 p.m. EST, will receive a $500 discount on tuition. More information on the application and financial aid can be found on our website.

Upcoming Pre-College Fairs 

We are excited to connect with students, families, and school professionals at our upcoming in-person and virtual events! On Thursday, December 7, Northeastern’s Boston campus is hosting a Pre-College Programs Fair, which will showcase programs available to middle school and high school students from more than 20 colleges and community organizations in Boston and beyond. More information and registration details are available on our website.

Additionally, Northeastern’s Accelerate Pre-College Programs will be hosting a booth at the Association for Pre-College Directors Summer Program Virtual Fair on January 20. More information and registration details for this virtual event can be found here.
