These campus-based programs offer gifted students in grades seven through ten the opportunity to enroll in three weeks of in-depth academic study.  An array of colleges and universities host the programs, providing young scholars a chance to be exposed to college classroom instruction and residence hall living. An administrative team oversees students’ supervision and manages program operations. Highly qualified instructional teams teach classes with approximately 16 to 18 students, while carefully selected residential teams implement social and recreational activities outside the classroom.
