Counselor Application

2020 Note: Due to the global pandemic, PROMYS cannot run an in-person program in 2020 and, sadly, there will be no 2020 program for first-year students or first-year counselors. 

This site largely describes the regular in-person PROMYS program – in eager anticipation of PROMYS 2021

Counselor Application Process

The application asks about courses taken in university-level mathematics, any relevant work experience, mathematical interests, and why you want to be a counselor at PROMYS.

Applicants are asked to provide the following:
1. College transcript (this does not need to be an official transcript)
2. Curriculum vitae (CV) and
3. Two letters of recommendation from people familiar with your mathematical background and your work in university-level mathematics. 

Please contact us in the PROMYS office at promys@bu.edu if you have any questions or concerns.

Policy of Nondiscrimination

PROMYS does not discriminate on the grounds of race, creed, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or national origin in the operation of its program or in its admissions, hiring, or financial aid decisions.
