The Clarkson School (TCS) is a one-year residential early-college entrance program in which students replace their traditional senior year of high school with their freshman year of college. This unique, experiential, learning environment positions students to learn through tangible, hands-on research projects with real-life applications. They also have the opportunity to gain real job experience through early internship opportunities, while benefitting from a reliable support network of student mentors, house advisors and staff to make the experience personally — and academically — fulfilling.
