What Is GenCyber Camps?
GenCyber is a federally funded program supporting free cybersecurity camps for secondary students and teachers. It is a national camp directory, not one nationwide camp or application. Each funded host separately markets and recruits for its camp and sets the audience, grade or age rules, dates, location, modality, curriculum, capacity, application materials, consent requirements, technology needs, and travel or housing arrangements. The official catalog says Summer 2027 camps will be listed after they are confirmed; it currently provides no 2027 student-camp applications or student deadlines. A federal host solicitation was released February 19, 2026 with host proposals due April 10, but that was an institutional funding deadline—not a participant deadline. GenCyber participation is free, while host-specific travel, housing, meal, or materials coverage must be checked separately.
