HOW IT WORKS
Students enroll in a three-week summer program during third grade, and continue to attend the academy the summer prior to their senior year in high school. Upon completion of the program, graduates who qualify for admission to Regis University are eligible to receive a scholarship to Regis that covers tuition and fees.
