Science Honors Program (SHP)

Moderatein-personPaidCourse✓ How we vetSource: The current Columbia Engineering Outreach page lists a September 19, 2026 start, in-person instruction only, and a $900 annual fee for incoming students with waivers for documented financial hardship (the older columbia.edu page that called it tuition-free is out of date).

A selective Saturday-morning program (10am-12:30pm, September-May) for high school sophomores through seniors living within 75 miles of Columbia's Morningside campus, with courses in the physical, chemical, biological, behavioral and computing sciences taught by active researchers. Starting Fall 2026 the annual program fee is $900 for new students ($700 returning), with hardship waivers possible.
