A note about our COVID-19 policies: We’re still refining our 2023 COVID-19 safety protocols in accordance with evolving public health guidance, but here are answers to your most commonly asked questions.

Will vaccines be required at CTY sites this summer?
Yes. Students and staff must be up-to-date on COVID-19 vaccination as defined by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control or have an exception approved by CTY. The requirement includes a third booster dose for all CTY students.
If I enroll my child in an on-campus summer course, and CTY cancels the course or program, will I get a refund?
Yes. If we cancel a program, course, or site for any reason prior to the start of the course, we will refund all non-application tuition and fees.
If my child gets Covid-19 during the program and is sent home, will we get a refund?
Yes. We are taking every step to ensure all students stay safe and healthy during our on-campus programs. If a student must leave campus because of COVID-19-related isolation, the family will be entitled to a prorated tuition refund under our medical withdrawal policy.
Will there be COVID-19 testing at summer sites?
Yes. Students and staff who exhibit symptoms of COVID-19 will be tested. Testing of asymptomatic students and staff will be based on COVID-19 metrics at the time of the program.
What are your mask requirements for on-campus students and staff?
At this time, masks are not required, but we’ll closely follow local, state, Johns Hopkins, and CDC public health guidelines, and will notify families of enrolled students about any requirements before their program begins. Regardless of requirements, kids will have fun, supervised time outside during the day. And we’ll make sure any students who wish to wear a mask feel comfortable doing so.
I’m worried my child won’t have any fun at CTY. Will they?
Absolutely! Our programs are always designed to give students an unforgettable experience, one where they learn and have fun inside and outside the classroom with other curious kids who share their interests. We’re already planning lots of activities to keep kids happy and engaged this summer while attending our programs.
