Prospective Summer Camp Students
Welcome Families!
Please review the process below to review how to apply for one of our 4 summer camps! If there are any questions do not hesitate to reach out to our precollege team at yxiong2@uwlax.edu!
- Please review the 4 different summer camps we are offering and decide what the best fit for your kiddo!
- After reviewing the information for the different camps below - fill out a Summer 2027 Participant Interest Survey that helps indicate what program you would like an application to.
- After I receive the initial information- I will be reviewing the information and touching base with families before sending out a link that is the direct camps application survey.
- Regardless of Race and Ethnicity, priority placement will go to kids who receive a DPI (Department of Public Institution) scholarship (free/reduced lunches) and have paperwork filed with their school district.
- Enrolling in a camp this summer is going to be competitive and we anticipate that we will have more kids who meet the qualifications than we can offer spots. If this is the case, we will be doing a lottery system and reaching out to families if this is the route we will need to take.
