A college fly-in program is an all-expenses-paid (or significantly subsidized) visit to a college or university, typically designed for high-achieving high school seniors from underrepresented backgrounds. These programs usually take place in the fall of senior year and provide students with a chance to experience campus life firsthand. Search our database here.

Schools Counselors are available to meet over the summer on designated days, either in person or via Zoom. Email your School Counselor if you would like to schedule an appointment.
