Mississippi Governor's School
The Mississippi Governor's School is a publicly funded two-week (formerly three-week) residential summer program offered to rising juniors and seniors in the state of Mississippi. The school typically accepts around 60 students each year.

Modeled after the Governor's School of North Carolina, MGS was founded by governor William Winter in 1981. Since its first session, the program has been held annually on the campus of The Mississippi University for Women in Columbus, Mississippi.

Due to the outbreak of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the June 2020 session of the program was cancelled.
