Admission for Visiting High School Students

Please read the instructions below before attempting to complete the High School Application.

The University of Virginia Summer Session does not offer a separate program for high school students.  High school students accepted in the summer are considered visiting undergraduate students and are enrolled in classes with other undergraduate students.  Only rising juniors and seniors with excellent academic records are eligible to enroll for summer classes.  With the exception of students accepted into the Summer Language Institute, high school students may take only one class per term.

The University does not offer housing for high school students. Living arrangements are the responsibility of the parent and guardian and must be in place before the student arrives for summer.
