On Wednesday, September 25, 2024, we hosted a free virtual panel discussion featuring students who joined us this past summer to attend the Harvard Summer School Pre-College Program and Secondary School Program, as well as one of our program proctors.
Our panelists shared their favorite memories, offered advice, and answered your questions about what it is like to be a student in Harvard’s college programs for high school students.
