Outreach

Thank you for applying to The University of Mississippi’s Summer Academy.  Before you begin the application process, please read the following carefully.

ALL CORRESPONDENCE WILL BE DONE STRICTLY THROUGH EMAIL.   You must have an email address in order to apply and you must check your email often to learn of your application status.   Our office will not send paper letters or call you to give you updates.

Please have your principal's email address and your counselor’s email address on hand to complete the application process. After you submit your application, you will be directed to the Member's Area screen where you will be asked to supply the addresses. Your principal and counselor are required to fill out paperwork giving you permission to attend the program.

A NON-REFUNDABLE $25 application fee must be paid before your application may be submitted.   The application fee must be paid online.  We are only able to accept Visa or Mastercard.  If you absolutely cannot pay by credit card, please contact our office at the information provided below to arrange an alternative payment option.

As soon as our office receives all of the required documents, your application will be reviewed and you will receive an email regarding our decision.  If documents are missing for your application, you will receive weekly emails informing you of what documents are missing.  If the documents are not submitted by the stated due date, your application will be cancelled.

Once you have been admitted to the program, you will be required to pay a $50 NON-REFUNDABLE registration fee to hold your spot in the program.  You will also be required to submit additional documents that will be included with your acceptance letter.  The registration fee and additional documents must be submitted by the stated due date or your application will be cancelled.

Payment for Summer Academy is due in full one month prior to the first day of the session you are taking. Payments may be made by check, money order, or credit card.  Again, we are only equipped to accept Visa or Mastercard.  You may make payments if you wish and may pay as much as you’d like and as often as you’d like as long as your balance is paid in full a month before you arrive.

If you have any questions, you may call our office at (662) 915-7621 or email at summeracademy@olemiss.edu.

Again, we thank you for applying to our program for the summer!

Note for RETURNING APPLICANTS:   If you attended Summer Academy last year, do NOT click the 'Proceed to Application' button below. You should log into your Summer Academy Members' account to re-apply. Please note that even though you attended the program last year, you will still need to submit transcripts, test scores, principal permission, and teacher recommendations.  If you have forgotten your password from last year, you will be allowed to reset it by using the same email address you used for your account last year.  If you no longer have access to this email account, please contact the Summer Academy office at 662-915-7621 or email us at summeracademy@olemiss.edu for assistance.  If you attended the Lott Leadership Institute for Rising 9th Graders last year, your application was submitted on paper so you will need to submit an online application as a new applicant for the Summer Academy program this year.
