UTG24: BU Academy: Boston University's On-Campus High School

The mission of Boston University Academy is to educate talented students who are passionate about learning and who share the joy of inquiry. Engaging with dedicated teachers in a small and caring community, students first immerse themselves in a classically based curriculum and then continue their intellectual interests at Boston University. All are invited to the Academy to learn more about its unique academic program for high school students and how various University departments may connect with us. The workshop will include a tour of the Academy and a presentation, followed by lunch with administrators and faculty.

What You Will Learn:
    About the Academy’s classically based secondary school curriculum
    How interested 8th graders can apply to the Academy for high school
    How University professors can engage with our students in advising senior thesis projects
    How to best support Academy students who enroll in your courses at the University
