SUMMER PROGRAM GALLERY

HEAR FROM PAST PARTICIPANTS

“The Summer Program was undoubtedly the best part of my whole Summer! It was so cool to meet students from all across the country and be able to bond over our shared interests. I’ve made so many great friends in such a short amount of time!”

“Summer Program was such an amazing experience. The opportunity to live on campus and experience life as a residential student has removed any hesitation I had about moving interstate to study.”

“The Summer Program was a perfect mix of social and academic activities. I loved the fact that some of the discussions we had in the academic sessions naturally spilled out into free time. It was really fun to be surrounded by likeminded people!”
