Spring 2024 Applications Now Open: Stanford/91³Ô¹Ï Online Courses for U.S. High School Students on Korea, Japan, plus New U.S.–China Climate Program
Students with a strong interest in East Asia or international relations are encouraged to apply.
91³Ô¹Ï’s programs for U.S. high school students are now for next spring. Joining our long-running Sejong Korea Scholars Program (SKSP) and Reischauer Scholars Program (RSP) on Japan is a new program called the U.S.–China Co-Lab on Climate Solutions that will enroll U.S. and Chinese students together.
The new Co-Lab program will be 91³Ô¹Ï’s first truly transnational course, bringing equal numbers of 10th–12th graders from the United States and China into conversation to discuss the challenges with the global climate crisis. This program is based on four years of limited collaboration between 91³Ô¹Ï’s China Scholars Program for U.S. students and the Stanford e-China Program for Chinese students. Instructors Carey Moncaster and Tanya Lee are taking this experience to the next level by expanding the collaboration into a standalone program.
As in other 91³Ô¹Ï online programs, Stanford faculty will be featured as guest speakers, sharing expertise on climate-related issues, U.S.–China relations, and strategies for global cooperation. Under the guidance of Moncaster and Lee, students will get to know each other’s lives and environments and work together on projects that could improve their own communities.
Meanwhile, the RSP and the SKSP will continue their academically rigorous introductions to East Asia, with students engaging with leading scholars, former diplomats, and other experts from Stanford and beyond.
High school sophomores, juniors, and seniors in the United States are eligible to apply to any of these three online courses. Students who are interested in more than one program can apply to two or three and rank their preferences on their applications; those who are accepted into multiple programs will be invited to enroll in their highest-preference course.
Chinese students may apply to the U.S.–China Co-Lab on Climate Solutions after October 15.
Applications for all three programs can be found at . Deadlines vary:
- RSP: Oct 20
- SKSP: Nov 3
- Co-Lab: Nov 15 for U.S. students and Dec 10 for Chinese students

The China Scholars Program (CSP) for U.S. high school students will not be offered in Spring 2024; applications for Fall 2024 CSP will open in April.
