High School Program
The Oxford Tradition
Program Overview
The Oxford Tradition is housed in Pembroke College, which was founded by King James I, in 1624. Pembroke boasts American Senator J. William Fulbright, Samuel Johnson, creator of The Dictionary of the English Language, and Transport Secretary Pete Buttigieg among its alums.
Our students live in the same rooms as undergraduates do during the university year, and work with leading academics, including professors. They pick two courses, a Major and a Minor, from a myriad of choices that includes Medicine, Business, Psychology, Politics, or Law.
