The program boasts a 100% college acceptance rate for its scholars and provides exclusive access to Fordham University's campus and resources.
The Fordham University STEP Summer Program is an academic enrichment initiative designed to prepare junior high and high school students (grades 7-12) for college and careers in STEM fields, health professions, and other licensed professions. The program offers advanced work in STEM subjects like mathematics, science, and computer science, along with English. Students engage in enrichment classes, laboratories, and special lectures introducing various specialized fields. They also benefit from mentoring and tutoring provided by Fordham undergraduate students, as well as advising and preparation for the academic and social rigors of high school and college life. The program emphasizes community building among scholars and includes Thursday field trips and a Service Learning and Community Based Learning week initiative. Opportunities for scientific research and presentations are also available.
Monday through Wednesday, scholars attend morning math and science classes followed by an elective class in the afternoon. Thursdays are dedicated to field trips.
The program is ideal for New York State residents who are rising 8th-12th grade students with an 85 average in Math and Science courses, and who meet specific income guidelines or identify with underrepresented minority groups in STEM fields.
