The Summer Mathematics Camp for High School Girls provides a stimulating and supportive environment for girls to develop their mathematical ability and interest. Camp participants learn about the exciting mathematics of Chaos and Codes. The girls will work with female mathematics professors and graduate students, and interact with peers who share an interest in mathematics. They live in UNL residence halls and are chaperoned by a female mathematics graduate student.

I have contacted the All Girls/All Math Summer Camp to inquire about their age minimum policies. They currently do not have any policies on age, but they do not encourage accelerated younger girls to apply. Their reasoning was “because the camp was made with the main purpose of getting girls together with the same interest in hopes of developing friendships and they do not believe that it would really work out to have a really young girl in a residential setting with 15, 16 & 17 year old girls.”

I have no personal experience with it but this looks like a good program.

This was a fun and interesting program when I attended in 2000. A bit short, but that allows it to remain affordable. As a rising junior who had completed precalculus, I knew a lot more math than many other participants, which was a little strange, but I still learned during the program.
