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).
