"Northwestern's College Preparation Program is designed to give college-bound high school juniors a head start in their academic careers. Participants earn college credit taking six- to eight-week Northwestern undergraduate courses and sharpen their reading and writing skills in the noncredit College Writing Tutorial. Students get an inside look at campus life by living in dorms, enjoying the same privileges as other members of the Northwestern community, including access to computing and research facilities, libraries, and fitness centers. Students must have a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.5/4.0."
