Bovard Scholars

The USC Bovard Scholars program helps high-achieving students with financial need gain admission to and succeed at the nation’s top universities.  Scholars receive admission and financial aid guidance, comprehensive test preparation, personalized career exploration and leadership development opportunities.  The program includes an intensive, three-week residential experience during the summer on the USC campus and personal coaching throughout the college application and decision-making process, all at no cost to the student.  Students apply during their junior year of high school and the residential component occurs the summer before their senior year.  Our scholars engage with guest speakers, industry experts, career specialists and recent college graduates to define their personal pathway to college and beyond.
