PreCollege Programs
PreCollege/Outreach Programs offer residential experiences
which help middle and high school students prepare for college.
The primary goal of the program is to assist students of color
and students from financially-disadvantaged backgrounds to prepare
for postsecondary education. The program includes academic,
career and personal development courses, as well as social and
cultural activities.
There are six PreCollege programs available for middle and
high school students:
- PreCollege Enrichment Program, for Grades 8-12
(PEP)
- Summer Mathematics and Reading Talent Scholars, for
qualified 7th Graders (SMARTS)
- Young Entrepreneurial Scholars, for Grades 10-12
(YES)
- YES Internship Program, for Grades 10-12 (YES
INTERNSHIP)
- Wisconsin Youth in Nursing, for Grades 10-12
(WYN)
- Aspiring Pupils for Professional Leadership in Education,
for Grades 8-10 (APPLE)
Cultural & Recreational Activities
Organized cultural, social and recreational activities are provided
for participants throughout the two-week period. Because the programs
also include weekends, thre are full-day weekend activities as
well.
Housing & Food
Students live in a residence hall and are supervised by appropriate
male and female resident assistants. Meals are provided through
the university food service and off-campus vendors.
Cost
Cost varies for each program. Most participants are eligible to
apply for a scholarship that covers the cost of the program, including
health and activity fees.
Eligibility
Eligibility varies for each program, though there are some requirements
common to all. Students of color and students from financially
disadvantaged backgrounds are given priority due to under-representation
within Wisconsin colleges. All applicants must have a C average
or above, be highly motivated and have an interest in furthering
their education by attending college.
