I attended Gov. School in 2016 and made life long friends. I gained valuable leadership skills and real world experience.

I attended MGS in the summer of '04, and it was a life-changing experience. I later went on to attend MSMS as well, and that decision was highly influenced by summer of learning and memorable experiences. I would recommend this program to any student that qualifies.

I attended MGS in 1984. It was such an amazing learning experience that initiated my life long desire to learn.

I went to MGS 2003, and have to say it was one of the best experiences of my life. I made lifelong friends and learned many amazing things. MGS is a great program that kids should be encouraged to get involved in!

The Mississippi Governor's School was an awesome experience! I attended it during the summer of 2007. No, it is not a place to learn how to be a governor. There, you learn leaderships skills, along with team skills. Sometimes, I didn't even realize that I was learning because I was having so much fun. Upon arriving there, I thought I was going to be an oddball, but actually, we were all oddballs. We became one big family. We became, and will continue to be, lifelong friends!

I attended MGS in 2000 and it was one of the best programs of that kind I had ever been through. Even other programs I have attended after MGS do not mean as much to me. The values for with MGS stands for make this program something special.
Student on 1/27/2005
Mississippi Governor's School has been the greatest experience of my life. I have met all of my lifelong friends, except my brother and sister, there. MGS means more to me than I can possibly say here.
Educator on 3/29/2004
MGS is located on the campus of Mississippi University for Women. Scholars who have a documented ACT score of 25 or higher receive 3 hours of Honors Humanities college credit.
