Central Summer Academy

Because it is sponsored by a generous grant from the U.S. Department of Education, the Central Summer Academy is free for students 

Central Summer Academy saves you money to help jump-start your education. Don't miss this opportunity!  Spots are extremely limited.

All Central Summer Academy participants will live on campus for the duration of the program to have the full college experience.

 Students will be enrolled in the following courses:

• MATH 1000 - Prep for MATH 1110/1111 (1 cr.)
• MATH 1010 - Fundamentals of Algebra (3 cr.)

or 

• COMM 1000- Public Speaking (3 cr.)

and 

• CFD 1450 - Valuing Differences (1 cr.)

Students will earn up to five credit hours of college credit. You will be ahead of many of your peers when fall starts.

Students will return home and enjoy the rest of their summer until Kickoff events later in August. During that time, all Central Summer Academy participants will have a reunion to celebrate.
