Young Students Programs, Grades 2-6

Notice for Session 1 and Hong Kong Sites: In light of the rapidly evolving COVID-19 pandemic, CTY, in close coordination with Johns Hopkins University leadership, has made the difficult decision to cancel Session 1 of our 2020 Summer Programs, along with all courses at our Hong Kong sites. Please visit our online information center to learn more.

Notice for Session 2: CTY is continuing to accept applications for our 2020 Summer Programs Session 2 courses. Session 2 course assignments, however, will be paused until May 1. Any student who has an application on file by April 24 will be assigned at that time, provided space remains in one of their course choices.

CTY offers day programs for grades 2-6 and residential programs for grades 5-6. Please click on the links below for more information about each of these gifted and talented programs, including eligibility requirements, catalog information, and program dates.
