Students will select one of five specially designed tracks in either Law, Politics, Business, Environmental Science or Global Awareness and provide a rigorous pre-college experience that exposes students to the university classroom environment and interactive sessions led by professors.  Beyond the classroom, visits to government agencies, area non-profits and businesses, will be led by the professors and will serve as an extension of the course topics. For the student, academic life in Washington, DC will foster personal growth and successful development of study skills, time management, self confidence, independence and community living!
