The Columbia University Science Honors Program (2023-2024)
I am writing to inform you about Columbia University's Science Honors
Program (SHP) and its application process for the 2023-2024 academic
year. This program, now in its sixty-fifth year, offers enrichment
courses in science and mathematics on Saturday mornings throughout the
school year to 700 students who have been selected from approximately
750 high schools in the metropolitan New York area. The program returned
to in-person operation this past year, as the Covid-19 pandemic receded.
Further information about the program is available at:
http://www.columbia.edu/cu/
Applicants to the SHP must now be in the 11th, 10th, or 9th grade and
should have a strong interest and exceptional ability in science and
mathematics. I would very much appreciate your informing appropriate
students, and science and mathematics teachers in your school about the
program. Next year's SHP will have openings for approximately 400 new
students.
The program uses an online application process which students can access
on the Columbia University SHP web page:
http://www.columbia.edu/cu/
Please note that the program is using a new online application platform,
Slate.
Each applicant will be asked to do the following:
(1) Submit an online application, with an associated $50 application fee
(waivers are available in case of financial hardship).
(2) Submit an electronic copy of their official transcript directly to
the SHP.
(3) Request that a teacher, guidance counselor, or principal submit an
online recommendation letter.
(4) Take a two-hour online entrance examination to be administered on
various weekend dates TBD during the second half of June.
The deadline for the SHP receipt of student online applications is May
31, 2023.
Official transcripts and online letters of recommendation must be
received by the SHP no later than June 15, 2023. Admission decisions
will be announced in August, 2023.

SoulPhamm Registration: Basketball, Cheerleading, Step Team, Sorority & More
SoulPhamm is a small, nonprofit organization that provides sports, arts and service activities for young people. You may learn more about us at www.soulphamm.org and about our program's leadership, Dr. Leisa Herrera, by viewing the trailer for the documentary titled, 1City Soul here. SoulPhamm is the successor organization to The 1City Youth Project.
We have received invitations to perform at high-visibility events across the tri-state area and along the East Coast and would like to involve as many young people from NJ and NYC as we can. We will be performing in a few collegiate Homecoming Events this fall in the hopes of exciting young people about attending college. Because of the work it will take us to prepare our amazing young people for this event, we are shutting down recruitment for the rest of 2023 after May 13th. Our programs operate on Saturdays, so they shouldn't interfere with their extra-curricular participation at school. In the case of conflicts, we encourage the young people to fully participate with their schools.
Although the program is currently based in Newark, it is open to students across New Jersey and New York City. We would encourage families to complete the form on our website as soon as possible to guarantee their slot for tryouts as we will only take 10 young people per club. We've not added you to our mailing list, and won't disturb you again after this.
