High School Students
Discover what’s possible before college begins.
Turn your interests into real-world experiences with immersive programs created for curious, ambitious high school students ready to discover what could be next.
You don’t need to know exactly what you want to do with your future. Pre-college is a chance to find out. Edconic programs take learning beyond the classroom, connecting you with the people, places, ideas, and iconic organizations shaping industries such as fashion, art, media, healthcare, technology, and more.
Spend your summer exploring something you already love or discovering something completely new. Through hands-on projects, expert-led learning, industry experiences, and time spent with students from around the world, you’ll gain a clearer sense of your interests, new skills and confidence, and experiences that can help prepare you for college and whatever comes after it.
