Student Testimonials
-
What did students learn during the 2024 program?
“I learned true friendship and got to know many amazing people and it was such a bonding experience to both live and be with your friends all the time it brought us so close and taught me so much. I also learned how to time manage myself and balance between hanging with friends or doing work and in my opinion, it made it easier to time manage because I knew I would hang out with my friends later. I also learned how important it is to adapt as well as I felt like adapting was a huge part of this process and learning how to learn in different ways also was a huge part.”
“I learned that I am fine on my own and away from home. I also learned that I am capable of completing work by myself.”
“I learned that I feel good about being productive. I was nervous that I would regret this program because it takes up a good deal of my summer, but I feel better knowing that I did not sleep in till two in the afternoon every day.”
“I learned how to become independent and complete daily tasks on my own without the help of my family. Due to this program, I was able to learn how to live on my own before college and get a glimpse into what my life will be like in a few years.”

How did this program prepare you for life after high school?
“I think the program helped me get a better understanding of how living on a campus is like. I understand what a college schedule might look like and I'm prepared for when I graduate high school and go off to college. I can also use the credits from this program to help me get a head start on my college courses.”
"After this experience, I now know what specifics I'm looking for in a college campus and college curriculum."
“I feel like this gave me a taste of "dorm/college" life with living with other people and stuff. I think it was a good idea to get used to that transition from high school to college before it actually happens.”
“I feel very prepared for my next year of high school and beyond. This program taught me how to time manage and prioritize which will allow me to have greater academic success in the future. Overall, this program helped to prepare me for the next steps in my academic career.”
