What to Expect
The camp includes staying in the on-campus residence halls for the week. Each attendee will receive their meals each day along with an academy t-shirt.
Students who attend a summer academy will receive priority consideration for a performance award scholarship of up to $2,000 a year to attend Huntington University. The scholarship will be reviewed upon acceptance to the university and completion of the performance award application.
Thanks to a generous grant, a select number of scholarships are available for minority students, students who receive free or reduced lunches, and/or students who have any parent that does not have a college degree. Students who select these options in the registration form will be taken to a scholarship application page. Upon completing the scholarship application, faculty will review and award a select number of scholarships.
