USC Summer Programs extends a tradition of excellence to outstanding high school students through a diverse offering of four-week, college-level courses. As “Summer Trojans,” participants will balance academic and campus life as they prepare for college — and earn college credit.

USC Summer Programs courses are taught by USC faculty and experienced professionals from the USC academic community. Our instructors create an engaging experience by combining lectures, hands-on workshops and labs, and guest speakers. Each course is designed to be more interactive, engaging and challenging than accelerated high school classes or the broad introductory courses offered by other summer pre-collegiate programs.
