The Pre-College Experience at the University of Delaware 

For over 30 years, the University of Delaware's Summer College program has engaged talented high school sophomores and juniors across the country. The Edge pre-college program offers highly motivated students the exclusive opportunity to live and learn on one of the most engaging college campuses on the East Coast.

Edge students live together in a state-of-the-art residence hall located on UD's beautiful Newark campus while taking 1 or 2 college-level courses. Classes are taught by real UD faculty and are fully accredited, which means Edge students have the opportunity to earn up to 6 transferrable credits upon completion of the program.

Students also have the chance to participate in a college readiness workshop led by experienced college admissions professionals who will give insight into the college application process, including how to create a competitive college essay. On weekends, students enjoy various activities around campus and can participate in trips to various cultural and historical locations in Delaware and the surrounding region
