Overview

The College Admission Original Program is an academic enrichment experience designed to help high school students understand and navigate the college admissions process. The atmosphere is focused, practical, and supportive, combining expert instruction with active participation. Students are encouraged to ask questions, think strategically, and take ownership of their academic and personal story.

The program covers key components of the college admissions process, including academic preparation, extracurricular planning, essays, and interviews. Rather than offering generic advice, instructors break down how admissions officers evaluate applications and what makes students stand out. Sessions are interactive, with discussions, exercises, and real examples that help students apply what they learn immediately.

This program is well-suited for students in grades 9–11, typically ages 14–17, who are beginning to think seriously about college or want clearer direction. Younger students benefit from early awareness and long-term planning strategies, while older students gain practical tools they can use right away. The learning pace is structured but approachable, making complex topics easier to understand.

What makes this program special is its realism. Students don’t just hear about college admissions—they experience how decisions are made and learn how to present their strengths with confidence and clarity.

Accommodation and Meals

Accommodation

The College Admission Original Program is offered in multiple formats. Students may participate in an overnight, on-campus option, where they stay in university residence halls and experience daily life on a college campus. Housing is shared with peers of a similar age and is supported by residential staff who provide structure and supervision.

A day camp format is also available for students who attend on campus during extended daytime hours and return home in the evening.

An online option allows students to participate remotely through live, interactive instruction. This format maintains small group engagement while giving families flexibility.

Meals

Meal arrangements depend on the chosen program format. Students in the overnight program eat meals in the university dining hall as part of daily campus life. Mealtimes provide opportunities to relax, connect with peers, and continue informal conversations about college topics.

Students attending the on-campus day program receive lunch and dinner in the university dining hall during their full academic day. These scheduled breaks help balance focused sessions with social downtime.

Meals are not provided for students enrolled in the online format. Online schedules include a built-in midday break, allowing students to manage meals at home.

Safety

Student safety is a priority throughout the College Admission Original Program. On-campus students are supervised by trained staff during classes, activities, and residential hours. Clear guidelines help maintain a respectful and organized environment.

Residential areas follow structured routines, and staff are available outside class hours to provide guidance and support. Day program students remain supervised throughout the academic day.

Emotional safety is also emphasized. Students are encouraged to participate, share ideas, and ask questions without pressure. The program fosters respectful discussion and supportive peer interaction, helping students feel comfortable and confident throughout the experience.

Health & Medicine

Health information is collected in advance to support student well-being across all formats. For on-campus participants, designated staff are available to assist if a student feels unwell or requires medication support during the day.

Clear communication procedures are in place to keep families informed if health concerns arise. Daily schedules include breaks and downtime to support focus and overall wellness.

Students in the online format participate from home, where families manage health needs directly. Program staff remain attentive to student engagement and communicate with families if concerns are noticed.
