The Naval Academy Summer STEM Program is offered to
rising 8th-11th Graders. Students must demonstrate superior academic
performance to include GPA, class standing, and/or strong PSAT, SAT or ACT
results. Selection is based in large part on ensuring geographic representation
along with overall accomplishments in and out of the classroom. Application
will close April 15th. All applicants will be notified of their status by May
1st.
Engineering is all about creating, building, and making
things better! So what does it take to be an engineer? If you like math and
science, you are off to a great start. If you enjoy discovering new things,
solving problems, and learning how things work - even better! Creativity,
persistence, and the desire to make the world a better place are also important
qualities. Becoming an engineer requires hard work and a good education. Our
summer program will be a great start to your career in science and engineering.
Applications close April 15 and program tuition is $200.
All students selected to participate will be required to
provide a nominal fee of approximately $200 which will include room and board,
meals, as well as a variety of materials. Plan on bringing extra cash for
snacks and souvenirs.
Each student is responsible for arranging transportation
to and from the Naval Academy. Those flying commercial air should make
arrangements to arrive at Baltimore-Washington International airport (BWI)
between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Day 1 of the program, and depart after 3:00 p.m.
on the last day of the program. Buses and midshipmen escorts will be on hand to
get you to and from the Academy and BWI.
