This ain't your typical college tour.
Students from all throughout the Northwest are invited to attend. The Summer College Experience is designed to provide high school students in grades 10th – 12th an all access, first-hand experience of college life and the opportunities it can provide. The Summer College Experience offers 5 itineraries which all depart from Seattle, WA and 5 host cities: Philadelphia, DC, Charlotte, New Orleans and Atlanta. Each itinerary is a unique all-inclusive experience (offering: airfare/ground transportation, lodging, meals, activities, and more) that parents of student participants will have from JUN 18- JUN 19, to prepare for.
To provide added value to the experience, students and parents will also be required to attend monthly pathway activities/workshops leading up to each destination departure. During these pathways students and families will gain privileged insider info about scholarships, financial aid, admission qualifying tests and more. These monthly pathways will also give students and parents opportunities to become familiar with SCE chaperones while strengthening each student and parent’s knowledge of the college admission process.
The program prepares each student for academic success and true post-secondary access by providing an engaging, flexible and free thinking environment that speaks to the challenges many high school students in this generation go through.
