Summer Program at UChicago

A message from UChicago:
We are pleased to announce the return of the Neubauer Family Adelante Summer Scholars Program, an opportunity at UChicago for talented rising seniors to get a taste of an exceptional college experience!

Thanks to the vision and the generosity of the Neubauer family, top students engaged in Hispanic and Latino communities can participate in a University of Chicago Summer Session course free of charge.

Selected students will receive a full scholarship to live on campus and participate in one of two exciting Summer Session Insight courses: Collegiate Writing: Awakening Into Consciousness or Contagion: Infectious Agents and Emerging Diseases. The scholarship covers tuition for the course, room and board, residential and student life fees, and the cost of travel to and from campus. Students will also engage with the city of Chicago and participate in college application workshops led by the Office of College Admissions.
















“This was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. I found value in everything I did and learned: becoming accustomed to the college lifestyle, doing college level work, developing life-long (hopefully) friendships, learning to navigate public transportation, exploring Chicago, learning more about the college application process. This was an experience that I will treasure forever.”
