Centro SOL Scholars Program - Programa de verano para jóvenes
This program was created to expose bilingual students to careers and opportunities to pursue higher education. In collaboration with Hopkins affiliated professionals, and external organizations we are planning to host 9 high school students (new and returning students) during summer 2018. Please note that this program is open to any high school student who meet our selection criteria. We will be a Youthworks Worksite, and therefore will be matching with Youthworks applicants who meet the criteria to participate in our program and submit our application. Youthworks applicants are encouraged to submit the certificates from that office as soon as possible.
The Centro SOL Summer Scholars Program application will open December 11, 2017 until January 15, 2018. This and other summer opportunities for youth will be updated in the Summer Program webpage on our website at http://jhcentrosol.org/what-we-do/youth-summer-program/
