HSPT (High School Placement Test) Prep Course
Xavier University is excited to host its inaugural High School Placement Test (HSPT) Prep Course on campus this summer! This premium prep class not only helps students prepare for all five sections of the HSPT but also provides young Catholic students in Cincinnati the opportunity to experience Xavier’s beautiful campus.
Xavier Summer Scholars
Xavier Summer Scholars is a one-week day camp for rising high school juniors and seniors (with potential availability for sophomores) to explore college-level learning at Xavier University. Students will choose one of four academic tracks—PPP/Political Science, Computer Science/Cybersecurity, English/Writing/Humanities, or Exercise Science/Health Science & Wellness—engaging in hands-on, faculty-led courses designed to spark curiosity and deepen knowledge. Beyond academics, students will participate in daily seminars focused on Ignatian values like vocational discernment and gain valuable insights through college application bootcamps. This program offers an immersive, engaging experience that prepares students for college while introducing them to the Xavier community running June 23-27, 2025!
