The Summer Scholars College and Career Pathways Program at Regis is designed specifically for rising high school juniors and seniors to immerse themselves intellectually and socially in two academic courses as they prepare for the college experience. Course options allow students to experience academic and career pathways that will help guide their college search.
Pathway options include:
The Summer Scholars pre-college program at Regis is a four-week experience, with one-week synchronous virtual learning leading up to a three-week residential experience. The 2025 program runs from July 7 to August 1.
Students start with one week of online synchronous coursework to get used to the content and pace. After that, they will spend three weeks living on campus, where they will meet new friends, join social activities, and take two full college-level courses. Reading, Thinking and Writing (EN 105) is required of all students. For the second elective course, students choose the pathway area of interest from Introduction to Criminal Justice (CJ 100), Teaching and Learning (ED 100), Interdependence of Health Care Pathways (ID 230), Introduction to Psychology (PS 203), or Introduction to Sports Management (SMT 216).
Social programming will include on campus activities coordinated by the Office of Residence Life and excursions to the Boston area. Outside of the coursework, students will engage in a Student Success Workshop, a series of hands-on workshops on preparing for the college experience and the variety of opportunities available through various campus departments. Upon completing the program, students will receive a Certificate of Completion and an official Regis College Transcript reflecting their six earned credits.
