Lindner Summer Institute
Lindner Summer Institute (LSI) was created to attract and introduce historically underrepresented groups to the world of business, including women, and/or students who identify as Black and African American, Hispanic and Latinx, or Native American.
Students who are entering 10th, 11th or 12th grade are eligible to apply to participate. LSI decisions for 2023 have been released. Stay tuned for the recap and photo album, or read the 2022 recap article.
Information for LSI 2023 Participants
LSI participants have until May 31 to submit the following items:
- Payment.
- Fee waivers can be requested by emailing business.ug@uc.edu.
- Required forms.
- Roommate preferences.
Alternatively, forms may be brought the first day of the program. Without these forms, students will not be permitted to participate.
LSI participants will engage in programming activities around entrepreneurship, problem solving and leadership building, while developing community with each other and current Lindner students.
During our three-night residential program, students will have the opportunity to live in the residence halls, explore campus and more. View the tentative agenda below.
