High school students can get a taste of college life in certain states over the summer with pre college summer camps and summer camps. The students get to live on campus for a few weeks to a month, depending on the university or college where the summer camp is taking place. Each state or university has a high school student cutoff, meaning they can only accept so many students with the pre college summer program. In Colorado the limit is 100 students, and they have summer camp on a big college campus. There are a number of colleges and universities that participate in Pre-College summer courses, including Brown University, Columbia University and John Hopkins. Students get to experience college life in a whole, with a college student as their “buddy”. It’s a beneficial program if you would like to know how college feels or can’t decide if you’d like to go to college.
