2025 | Summer JAM (Jump Ahead in Math)

Welcome to Summer JAM!

USC launched Summer JAM on June 25, 2025. The six-week summer program helped students Jump Ahead in Math, learn how to navigate the Columbia campus, and meet new friends before fall semester. Best of all—there was minimal cost to attend

Summer JAM ran from June 25 - August 1, 2025 and is no longer in session.

Summer JAM eligibility is based on your math test score and GPA prior to starting your freshman year. If you plan to apply for a future fall semester as a new freshman, you will be notified by USC if you are eligible to attend Summer JAM.
