Summer Programs For High School StudentsNew York City
Residential students may wish to bring an alarm clock, a desk lamp, and clothes hangers. Although a linen package that includes a blanket, two sheets, a pillowcase, two towels, and a washcloth are provided, some students may opt to bring an additional blanket and extra towels. Students should bring clothes for warm weather and may want to bring a bathing suit for swimming at the gym or trips to the beach and one dressier outfit for activities such as trips to the theater.
Students have access to computer labs throughout campus but it can be useful to bring a laptop, especially as students will not have access to computer labs after curfew. Please note that laptops are required for some of the courses; see individual course descriptions. Free Internet access is provided to all rooms for students with computers equipped with Ethernet cards; students will need to bring or purchase their own Ethernet cords. Please note that the configuration of some rooms will require especially long Ethernet cords, so you might want to hold off on buying a cord until after you have seen your room.
We recommend that residential students have access to a minimum of $900 in spending money per session. ATM cards are recommended.
