Boston University Summer Journalism Academy
As we begin a new year, it's time to start thinking about what your students will do this summer. If you have a student interested in a career in journalism, writing, communications, or photography, encourage them to apply for the Boston University Summer Journalism Academy, hosted by Boston University College of Communication.
For 14 years, our program has trained high schoolers critical skills in news reporting, interviewing, and writing. Our courses are taught by award-winning, working journalists, including Pulitzer Prize winners Lara Salahi and Rochelle Sharpe . Students interested in visual storytelling will learn from veteran photojournalist and The Boston Globe photographer Stephen Haines. Regardless of which program students choose, we challenge them to step outside their comfort zone and experience life as a working journalist.
We offer three courses:
- An on-campus residential program from June 24 to July 12, 2024 (for students with some journalism experience)
- An on-campus photojournalism program from June 24 to July 12, 2024 (for students interested in visual storytelling)
- A two-week learn-from-home program for high school students at all experience levels, starting June 17, July 1, and July 15.
Applications for the on-campus session are due on April 19. Applications for learn-at-home sessions starting June 17, July 1, and July 15 are due on May 10. Students who apply, are accepted, and fully registered by March 8 can save $400 off the full fee for the on-campus academy or $200 off the full fee of the learn-from-home academy. We have limited need-based scholarships and financial aid available to students; students must email us for more information.

Dear Erin,
Do you want your students to get a jump-start learning what they love? Gain hands-on experience in the subjects that interest them most? Champlain’s industry-specific Pre-College Summer Programs are their chance to dive deeper into the subjects they’re passionate about.
Immersed in their interests with like-minded peers, they could spend a couple weeks this summer exploring a field they care about led by faculty who are experts in the industries they teach—all while having fun and making friends on our beautiful Burlington, Vermont campus. Plus, when the time comes, it’ll look great on college or internship applications.
