Future Scholars Program Information

What is the Future Scholars Program?

2007 Poster
Its an opportunity for high school seniors to take college math classes for credit. Over the past five years, we've had over 30 students from 18 different schools participate. The Department of Mathematics works with the school's counselors and math faculty to target potential participants. Students are able to register for a four credit math course without tuition costs. Students are responsible for registration fees, the costs of their textbooks, and parking.  Each year about ten students are chosen to be Future Scholars.

How can I participate?

All  schools receive an email with nomination materials the end of February or beginning of March. Email lists are updated annually but not all schools list emails. If your school is not receiving this email you can send your contact information to course@math.jhu.edu. School counselors and math faculty are asked to nominate advanced mathematics students. All nominated students are required to take the qualifying exam to be considered for this highly selective program.
