The 3-week residential program, including all accommodation, meals, and the field trip to Washington DC is $6,000. Extensive financial assistance is available and admission is need-blind. Please see our Financial Aid Calculation Table for automatic financial aid awards based on combined household income.

Admission to the program is always need-blind. Financial aid will be available in the form of grants to cover the costs associated with the program. We may even be able to assist with transportation to and from Princeton as needed.

Grant funding is awarded based only on financial need, rather than academic merit (unlike scholarships), and is not expected to be paid back (unlike loans).

The program is open to all rising 11th grade students. We encourage applicants from underrepresented racial groups (Black, Hispanic/Latino/Latina, and Native American) who have a strong interest/ability in math and sciences and who have demonstrated leadership potential. Girls are particularly encouraged to apply.

Due to limited space, we will only consider students who are currently in 10th grade and will be rising 11th graders this summer. Other AI4ALL programs have other admission criteria.

Yes. Students will stay in one of Princeton University's undergraduate dormitories for the full 3 weeks of the program.

Yes, we will accept students based outside the US. However, neither AI4ALL or Princeton University are able to provide assistance with procuring the proper visas for any non-US student to participate in the program. Non-US based students need to work with their own government and the US Department of State, as well as any other necessary authority, to procure any visas or other necessary documentation to attend the program on their own.

No. We only assess students based on their abilities/interest in math and science and leadership potential.

No. All necessary equipment will be provided at the camp.

The program’s main goal is to increase diversity in the field of Artificial Intelligence by lowering long-standing entry barriers that disproportionately affect students in underrepresented populations. To achieve this, the program aims to expose high school students to a variety of AI topics, discuss cutting-edge research, and explore the social impact of AI.

Students will attend daily lectures held by Princeton AI faculty, will gain exposure to hands on introductions to the AI lab and attend social events and mentoring sessions.

The program will take place on Princeton campus for three weeks in the summer. Summer 2024 dates TBA.

Yes. We do not require standardized tests.

The letter of recommendation should come from a teacher, coach, manager, or another individual who knows you in an academic or professional capacity. Letters from parents or other family members are not acceptable. The ideal recommender would be able to highlight your academic strengths, leadership skills and/or outreach work, and would be able to attest that you have the academic preparation and the maturity to thrive at Princeton AI4ALL.
