BCHS receives an amazing amount of summer program information from colleges and other organizations. These programs may revolve around a career or field of study and are also a good way to explore a college you might be interested in. These often have a cost, but some can be found that are not so expensive.
If you have a specific interest, contact the BCHS school counselors to see what information they have. Or, look on the website of the college you are interested in to find what they are offering.
Registration for these programs often opens in early spring, with late spring deadlines, so plan ahead.

The University of Chicago’s summer pre-college programs draw from the multidisciplinary emphasis and intellectual richness of the College’s Core curriculum. We offer a variety of courses in diverse subject areas and engagement levels that match any motivated high school student. For Summer 2024, we will host both residential programs and online courses, including:
Enrichment Programs
With enhanced financial support to cover program costs, talented and motivated students have the opportunity to reside on campus and benefit from co-curricular programming to prepare them for the highly selective admissions process while learning about topics like economics, freedom of expression, leadership, or quantum physics. Some programs seek a nomination from a teacher or counselor. If you are interested, see Mrs. Saurine in the School Counseling Department.

Course subjects include astrophysics, biotechnology, coding, data science, economics, literature, molecular engineering, political science, psychology, and more.
