Meet fellow STEM-loving students from across the country and around the globe to preview life as a real engineering student. Make life-long friends, enjoy fun weekend excursions, and challenge yourself academically while having access to on campus perks like special lectures and career connections!  Whether you attend at our JHU Homewood campus in Baltimore or at Hood College in the smaller city of Frederick, MD, the curriculum and weekend activities will be the same.

For 2025, students participating in a residential program must have been born between July 26, 2007, and June 29, 2010; they must be at least 15 years of age on move-in day and no older than 17 years of age on the last day of the program. We cannot accept students who turn 18 before the final day of the course to a residential program. You must be under 18 years of age to live in the residence hall.

What was important to us was the memories you make. Because memories are what stick with you the most, not the grades. It’s about becoming the best version of yourself, and that is much more than just doing well on paper.
