Additionally, summer program applicants may only serve as a Page during the summer before or the summer after their junior year of high school. School year Page Program applicants may only serve during their junior year of high school.
An official transcript of all grades (from 9th grade through at least the first semester of current year) is required to verify the cumulative grade point average of "B" or better in the major courses. Only grades in the following subject areas will be included in the GPA tally: English, science, mathematics, social studies, and foreign language. Electives are not included.
