Governor's Schools

Applications are currently being accepted for two of the former Pennsylvania Governor’s Schools, the PA School for Global Entrepreneurship at Lehigh University and the University of Pittsburgh Health Career Scholars Academy. Applications for both programs are due by the 2nd week of February, 2010.

The newly named PA School for Global Entrepreneurship (PGSE) will be offered June 27 through July 31, 2010, and is the same in content, length and selectivity as the former Governor’s School program.

The University of Pittsburgh Health Career Scholars Academy is four weeks in length (June 27- July 24, 2010), but has also maintained the same content and selectivity as the former Governor’s School. The program accepts 110 high school juniors who are introduced to the world of health care.

Applications and further information on the Global Entrepreneurship program can be found at www.iacocca-lehigh.org, on the High School program link. For specific questions, please contact Trisha Alexy, Director, at tsa2@lehigh.edu.
