Virtual Summer Programs Still Accepting Applications

With the growing uncertainty of the future of COVID-19, many, if not most, summer programs, camps, and internships have been canceled in hopes to slow the spread of the virus and to keep young people safe. Institutions of higher education have either canceled their summer programs or moved them online. Crimson Education believes that summers are just as important for student development as is the school year, that’s why we’ve compiled a list of prestigious summer programs that have moved online and are still accepting applications!
