(NEW!) Financial Decision Making
Financial Decision Making is an intensive two-week summer opportunity for a select group of high school students currently enrolled in grades 9–12. High school students are entering a world of financial decisions, some they make and some that others make for them. In addition to their lives as consumers (shopping both online and off), they need to save for the short term and invest for the long term; borrow against the future without spiraling into debt; plan around inflation; shop for financial products; know where their tax dollars go; and understand their rights and the financial issues at stake when they vote. Students need to build the awareness and skills to help them make sound financial decisions.
INCLUDED IN ALL SUMMER ONLINE HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAMS
Wharton Global Youth Meetup (GYM)
Wharton Global Youth Meetup (GYM) is a creative, co-curricular community open to summer students as a way to connect to one another — and Wharton — before, during, and after their programs. Featuring both live and independent programming, the GYM is designed to ensure virtual participants don’t miss out on valuable community building and networking.
*The GYM is included in all online summer programs, except Understanding Your Money.
