Why wait for college when you can experience it now?
Apply for the Constitutional Academy, a week-long residential program in Washington, D.C. for advanced high school students!

Students- Take this chance to experience the challenge of college-level instruction before you leave high school! The Bill of Rights Institute’s Constitutional Academy gives you the opportunity to ask important questions with other bright students from across the country who share your interest in history, American government, and personal liberty, and to explore these questions under the guidance of a faculty of distinguished teachers and college professors.

Thirty outstanding high school juniors and seniors will be selected for each program week in this college-level, residential program. Through readings, discussions, and active learning experiences, you will deepen your understanding of the constitutional principles that were so important to our nation’s Founders, and that continue to be important today.
