Future Scholars Orientation

Sorry for the gap in posting.... Now that the semester is winding down, there is a little more time to breathe.

For all of you interested in the Future Scholars Program, we have seven winners this year. Again, these winners are Baltimore area high school juniors to whom we have awarded the opportunity to take two of our classes here in the Mathematics Department this next academic year tuition free during their senior year in high school. Congratulations to them, and I look forward to meeting and working with them this next fall.

We will schedule an orientation session this June, to meet the new scholars and provide them the necessary information to take advantage of the program. Tentatively (and we are in the process of notifying the scholars now), we are setting the meeting for

Tuesday, June 26, 2007 at 6pm in Krieger Hall Room 211

Parking vouchers will be provided (visitor parking will be plentiful in the evening hours), and we encourage strongly that parents also attend this session.

Please let us know if, as a scholar, you cannot attend. We can always reschedule the meeting if most of you cannot make it, and make time for you outside the general session if simply one or two of you cannot attend at the above time.

Future Scholar Results announced....

We have made decisions regarding the Future Scholars for the next academic year, and will be mailing out notices to winners this next week.

For those of you who are curious, the Future Scholars Program invites local area high school Juniors to take a locally proctored exam to compete for the chance to take Hopkins University Matheamtics courses here in campus during your senior year in high school. Tuition is fully paid for (though fees and books are not) for a course in each of the two semesters of that year. The exam was administered this last month, and we are in the process of notifying the winners.

Congratulations to the winners, and good luck to all who entered.

The Future Scholars Competition starts now.


The exam is now out and for the next three weeks, Baltimore area high school juniors will have the opportunity to compete for 10 slots as JHU Mathematics Future Scholars. The program allows recipients to take up to three math classes here at JHU tuition free for full university credit during their senior year in high school. Look here for the details.


Good luck to all!
