Dear Parents, Guardians, Students and Partners:
In consultation with the University Systems of Georgia, the Early College program at Georgia State has decided to SUSPEND the Early College Summer Enrichment activities for the summer of 2020. Given the impact of the pandemic nationally and its effects on communities and colleges, the decision to suspend is in line with national public safety protocols.
For those individuals that may have paid any money for their student to attend the Early College Summer Enrichment program, all money will be refunded!
Thank you for your interest in the program and Early College looks forward to interacting with you in 2021.
Thank you to all who participated in the previous years of our Early College Summer program! They have all been great successes. Our program is open to all metro Atlanta students and while we’ve had to cancel this year’s activities, we’ll be back in 2021! Here’s a glimpse of what the program offers:
In four weeks, our students gain what they need to be successful upon starting college. They’ll learn academic, cultural and social skills through course work and field trips.
Early College Summer program students take college-level math, English and social science classes. They’ll learn such things as:
- study skills
- financial literacy
- how to become a successful college student
- coding, art, and film
Our on-campus summer program gives them the experience of what it’s like to be at the university. They’ll learn to navigate the campus, experience downtown, and interact with other college students.
They’ll also get to go on field trips such as:
- Equal Justice Initiative in Montgomery, Alabama
- Junior Achievement at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta
- and… a surprise, out-of-town, fun-filled trip
College-bound high school students will get a huge head start from this extraordinary experience.
We’ll see you in 2021!
