What:	Learn anything at Cascade! At Cascade, you will take hands-on, interactive classes every Saturday for six weeks. Classes are offered by MIT community members (undergraduates, graduates, or faculty) or members of nearby universities, and cover a wide range of topics. Cascade courses are also complemented by a personalized mentorship program, which will cover topics including college preparation and navigating high school!

Who:	We partner with greater Boston area schools and community centers to recruit underserved students (9th-12th graders). Cascade 2024 applications will open late August. Please note that Cascade is not open to students residing outside of Massachusetts.
Cost:	Cascade is completely free for all students! Free lunch and transportation subsidies will be provided.
