Penn Research Experience for High School Students (formerly Penn LENS) – Mar 16
Posted by Penn Arts and Sciences on February 18, 2025
The Penn Research Experience for High School Students (formerly Penn LENS) is looking for scientifically curious students who would like an authentic research experience. The PREHSS program was previously known as Penn LENS (Penn Laboratory Experiences in the Natural Sciences) but has been renamed to better describe the program and its participants.
Current 10th and 11th graders from Philadelphia School District, charter schools, and other schools by invitation will join Penn labs to participate in research under mentored guidance. The program is free, even transportation is covered, and students receive a $1500 financial award.
The application requires students to write a short essay, submit a transcript, and one letter of recommendation.
The final date for applications is March 16, 2025.
