About

Emory University’s Pre-College Programs offer high-school students the opportunity to explore college-level academics within a mid-sized private research university known for strengths in the sciences, public health, business, and the humanities. Students may participate in residential or commuter formats for non-credit enrichment, or via online and commuter formats for credit-bearing undergraduate courses. Academic offerings span areas such as neuroscience, global health, and social sciences, reflecting Emory’s interdisciplinary culture. Residential participants (enrolled in non-credit tracks) live on campus in Turman or Hamilton Holmes Hall and engage in structured programming, while commuter and online pathways broaden access for credit-seeking and international students. Participation requires submission of application materials and a rolling program review rather than simple open enrollment. For families seeking a rigorous yet balanced introduction to university-level study at a private research institution, Emory Pre-College provides a thoughtful and academically grounded summer experience.
