Carnegie Mellon AI4ALL

Carnegie Mellon AI4ALL provides rising high school juniors and seniors, with a strong interest in computer science, the opportunity to utilize artificial intelligence to address problems of probabilistic and numeric nature. Students engage with faculty, staff and researchers who’ve been leaders in AI since the field was invented at Carnegie Mellon in the 1950s. Students will be exposed to a breadth of knowledge in the field with the goal of leveraging AI for social good. The preferred deadline for AI4ALL is February 15. The School of Computer Science is committed to diversifying the national pipeline of underrepresented students in computer science and artificial intelligence, as a result, students admitted to Carnegie Mellon AI4ALL will not be charged tuition, housing or dining fees. A non-refundable deposit will be due upon admittance, and will be transferred to the student’s account after enrolling to assist with the purchase of program supplies. Students will be responsible for books, supplies, transportation and recreational expenses. We have a limited number of funds available for transportation or book costs. Requests will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Application process includes: application; family and student information; transcript; 2 recommendation letters, one from a computer science (preferred) or STEM teacher and one from an after school program advisor/mentor or counselor; 4 short answer essays; standardized test scores (optional).
