I took part in the Discover Medicine Academy last year during the summer. Overall, I had a really rewarding experience. The course touches on a wide variety of topics and my instructor, Dr. Eleanor Hogg, was a very helpful and thoughtful instructor. I gained a lot of knowledge specifically on the immune system, which is something I’m extremely fascinated about. Overall, I’d recommend this course to anyone interested in medicine. Thank you!
The World Scholars Academy is a great place to learn about the different philosophies of medicine. It is also a great place to learn about the more in-depth topics of medicine. The Discover Medicine Academy is an overall fun and interesting place to learn which is why I enjoyed it so much!
This course was very interesting and insightful. I thoroughly learned many things and enjoyed the classes. The instructor did a great job explaining every lesson with detail. I would recommend this course to those who are interested!
I really enjoyed my class and I learned a lot! I’m glad to had been giving the opportunity to join that class because it sparked an interest that I’m trying to pursue!

Who Should Apply:
World Scholars Academy programs target ambitious students from around the world who are eager to excel in their academic pursuits and learn in a personalized setting from the world’s most accomplished educators.
When to Apply:
It is recommended to enroll for your desired program session as soon as possible. However, we are able to accept a student onto our programs up until the day they start, provided that the session has not yet filled. For summer courses it is also better to apply earlier so we can schedule your first one-on-one tutorial with your instructor prior to your first class, and so you have a chance to consult your instructor's recommended preparatory materials before your classes begin (though this is optional).
