The residential week
Classes are only one part of the week. Students from every Academy live together in Harvard undergraduate Houses, sharing meals and the everyday rhythm of campus.
All students attending during the same week live in one of Harvard’s 12 historic undergraduate Houses, each around a five-minute walk from the classrooms. Accommodation may be suite-style or a hallway single. Room requests and assignments take place at the end of April.
Housing includes all provided meals. Lunch is served during the program day, while breakfast and dinner are available in a House dining hall. Students may also choose the many options around Harvard Square; meals outside the provided program are not included in tuition.
Our On-Campus Academies run for one week (M–F) during the summer months. They are open to high school students in grades 9–12.
