Anyone who has gone through the college selection process will tell you that the best way to make that final decision is to spend time visiting the campus of your choice. There is no better way to determine if a specific campus is the right place for you than to spend some time there getting to know the place.
Whether you are a high school freshmen or soon to be senior summer is the right time to explore. Camps are a great way to get to know your potential college choice up close and personal. There are various summer camp opportunities at many institutions that range from sport camps, to academic camps, to music camps!
There are many reasons why spending several days of your summer on a college campus can be rewarding. First, you are on your own for a few days and what a great chance for you to spread your wings a little bit. Plus you will get to wake yourself up in the morning without mom, check out the cafeteria food and see how this whole roommate thing works out.
Many colleges, including Wartburg offer summer camps where if you end up attending that school you even gain academic credit for the course. Many years ago I attended Summer Honors at my undergraduate institution and had a wonderful time. I learned what taking a college class would be like, made friends that I still have to this day and because of that experience attended college at that institution.
Make the most of your summer vacation and enroll in a summer camp with an activity or topic that is of interest to you. Use this experience as the foundation of how you will select the institution where you will complete your undergradute degree.
Remember that Wartburg College offers a number of academic, athletic and summer camps each year. For more information please visit www.wartburg.edu
