[quote=Anonymous]Welcome to Duke Ellington! Most if not all departments do a focused intensive summer day camp -- it is low cost for non-DESA students, free (and generally required) for admitted freshmen, and compensated (service hours or YEP) for rising upperclassmen who work as counselors. Contact your department head for the specific dates for your program.

We had already committed our rising freshman to a sleepaway camp before we learned the dates of our department's summer intensive. Fortunately, the camp was also focused on the same subject matter as the department, so DESA gave our freshman "credit " for the sleepaway camp (no actual academic credit, but the kid was allowed to arrive late to the summer intensive).

After all the summer intensives are over, there is a freshman class summer bridge program also. All freshmen, all departments, lots of school spirit, the one you don't want to miss. Our kid was a little lukewarm on the school after the summer intensive, but fell in love with it during the pre-frosh week.
