For the summer of 2023, PC3 will bring its first-ever cohort to campus from May 31st to August 5th, 2023. As a participant in PC3, students will be on the University of Michigan's Ann Arbor campus for 10 weeks during the summer. PC3 offers:

  • Stipend of $6,000
  • Academic advising
  • Peer-to-peer mentoring
  • Job shadowing and career exploration
  • Student-led, non-credit coursework
  • …and more fun activities with your cohort!
