Notre Dame Global Scholars Pre-College Program → Oct. 14 - Nov. 19

Global Scholars have a unique opportunity to engage with Notre Dame International faculty at our London Global Gateway and the Jerusalem Global Gateway at Tantur during Fall 2023. Participants choose an online course of study, immersing themselves in the ND global community and meeting other like-minded peers from across the globe. The ND global community provides a network with resources for pre-college students to develop skills in order to answer the call to become global citizens within their own communities, as students tackle complex issues on an international scale. Students will earn a college credit upon completion of this enriching academic experience.

Community Resources

US Education Secretary visits Community College of Aurora

Secretary Miguel Cardona announced The Career Connected High School Grant program, which will provide money to school districts, colleges and universities, and employers to pilot strategies that blur the lines between the last two years of high school and the start of postsecondary education. The grants could be used to expand dual enrollment programs, invest in new equipment, or pay for students’ exams that earn them a credential.

Have a great weekend!
