Description:

Enjoy three days and nights of intensive preparation and fun on one of New Jersey’s most beautiful college campuses. Open to young women entering 10th and 11th grades, this camp offers:

 

• Small classes with GCU faculty & instructors

• Stress reduction tips for tests & life

• Critical reading for SAT prep & college level writing

• Guidance about the college search process & transitioning to college

• Fun and recreation on a 155-acre historic campus

• Opportunities for fresh thinking & creative expression

 

Why Choose a GCU Summer Camp?

At a GCU summer camp, you’ll get an edge over the competition through a values-oriented curriculum. Learn business basics or the fundamentals of critical writing for college preparation, while building critical problem solving, creative, or team-building skills. Field trips supervised by professional GCU staff bring real-life experience to your resume, and a quality experience is guaranteed by a 45-person limit per camp.

 

What’s included in Tuition?

The $450 tuition is all-inclusive, covering all curriculum materials, on-campus meals and snacks,

insurance, a camper’s golf shirt, admission and transportation for field trips, and a low camper-to staff ratio. Overnight residence hall accommodations for the College Prep & Writing Camp are also included.

 

What are the facilities like?

Camp facilities at GCU, with the exception of day trips, are self-contained within the gates of our historic 155-acre suburban Lakewood campus. Air-conditioned classrooms will house camp sessions and students at the overnight camp will get a taste of college residence life.

 

Who makes up the staff?

GCU’s camp staff is made up of highly qualified and well-trained counselors, including GCU faculty, administrators, and guest lecturers.

 

What’s for lunch?

Camp tuition for both camps includes cafeteria-style all-you-can-eat breakfast and lunch in the Dining Hall, as well as snacks and drinks throughout the day. The overnight College Prep & Writing Camp also includes dinner in the Dining Hall.
