High school applicants must be:
- At least 16 years old by the start of the program (June 21, 2025)
- Have completed at least one year of high school and
- May not be matriculating into Stanford as first years.
Please understand that these are strict policies and we unfortunately cannot make any exceptions to our age requirements.
We recommend looking into Stanford Pre-Collegiate Studies as an alternative. Pre-Collegiate Studies offers academic enrichment programs that take place during the summer. Their offerings may be browsed on their website. Their programs are typically a few weeks in length. Please note that programs offered by Pre-Collegiate Studies are not for credit.
