Girls Who Code Free Virtual Summer Programs

Level up by becoming a coder this summer with Girls Who Code!

Choose your adventure through our two free virtual programs and get the skills, network, and lifelong college and career support you need to change the world. All high school girls and non-binary students are welcome to apply, including past participants.

In our 2-week Summer Immersion Program for current 9th-11th graders, you’ll join live virtual classrooms hosted by industry-leading companies like MetLife, Bank of America, and Accenture. By the end of the program, you’ll learn the fundamentals of game design, UX, and the iterative design process as you build out a suite of short games using p5.js, a JavaScript library for creative coding. You can even apply for a laptop, hotspot access, and grants of $300 for financial support!

In our 6-week Self-Paced Program for current 9th-12th graders, you’ll learn to code through independent study and real-world projects. By the end of the program, you’ll earn beginner-level certificates of completion in HTML, CSS, or JavaScript for web development or intermediate-level certifications of completion in Python for cybersecurity or data science.

Don’t miss your chance to be a part of a sisterhood that supports you for life!

Get started by applying for one of the summer programs, or by attending a webinar. Make sure to apply by February 15 for priority consideration or by March 24 for the general application deadline.
