What are the summer academies?

Our summer academies are a key component of our programs to ensure that all Thrive Scholars are truly ready to thrive in college and in their careers.

 

Academies are intensive 6-week academic preparation programs that take place during the summer on a university campus. Some academies are residential, where students live on a college campus in the dorms. Others are commuter or day programs, where students attend class on a local college campus but still live at home for the duration of the program.
 

All Thrive Scholars programs include summer academies to prepare scholars for the rigor of college academics and university life. Don’t you want to try our secret sauce?

What do our scholars say?

JACOB, MIT

“This program showed me how big the world is and revealed how kids like me actually have a role in  changing it. I walked into Summer Academy not knowing my worth and walked out with the confidence I  needed to succeed -- and a new family that supported me through all of it.”

TATIANA, COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY

“The Thrive Scholars community has allowed me to meet people from all across the country who have an  unmatched drive to succeed. Being a part of that community has allowed me to succeed at levels I didn’t  think were possible before.”

RIFAT, STANFORD UNIVERSITY

“The Thrive Scholars community is significant to me because it is a network of hardworking and determined  students who have aspirations similar to mine. To be a Thrive Scholar is to develop the confidence to  maximize the resources provided to accomplish difficult academic goals and achievements.”
