Summer and Enrichment Programs
Click HERE for Summer Enrichment

Deadline for UC Howard Hughes Saturday Science Program has been extended to April 30. See inside under "Medicine".

NOTE: We have noticed several deadline extentions for which we have not received direct word. If you see a program you like, CONTACT THE ORGANIZATION for that program to see if there is still time to apply!

The Clark Montessori College and Careers office is proud to announce a new section to the Clark website providing information about student enrichment programs at colleges around country.

Enrichment programs, usually but not always held in the summer, are an immersion into a particular area of interest that can give a student both knowledge in that subject and help her or him decide if that subject is what they'd like to make their life pursuit.

These programs are a GREAT way to get started on a particular subject! Applications can take some work, and there is often some expense. But if a student can get started on an area of interest even BEFORE going to college, they are all that much more likely and able to succeed in their field.

Important note on our Enrichment Section listings:
All of the programs we are informed of are listed, on some of the listings you will find application deadlines already in the past.
But these programs will become active again about one year from the expired deadline.
This gives applicants the ability to look ahead and familiarize themselves with the requirements well in advance.
