Summer Precollege Programs
“I feel empowered to continue to strive and succeed in a field of study that is dominated by men.”
“Being immersed in a community of writers is amazing. You’ll leave with a clear idea of what you can do next with your writing.”
COVID-19 Protocols
COVID-19 protocols are subject to change based on caseloads, research, current data, and government guidelines and recommendations. Smith will continue to examine and adjust protocols based on evolving information. While the COVID-19 vaccine is no longer required for community members, the college strongly recommends that all members of the community follow CDC COVID-19 vaccination guidelines, including being up to date with all COVID-19 vaccines and boosters. If you have questions, please visit the Schacht Center web page to learn more. Students who are immunocompromised and/or disabled are encouraged to visit the Office of Disability Services (ODS) to learn more about their services.
