Northwestern Academy

Northwestern Academy is a free, multiyear college access and enrichment program for diverse, academically motivated students. Classes are held over the summer and during out-of-school hours. The Academy serves high school students from Chicago Public Schools (CPS) who come from households of limited financial means and who do not attend one of the CPS selective enrollment schools. Students may apply in ninth grade, and then attend 10-12th grades. The goal is to increase access and successful matriculation of underrepresented CPS students to top-tier colleges and universities by providing personal enrichment, leadership development, college advising, and cultural and civic engagement
