 SUMMER COLLEGE
 
 UMASS Amherst now offers SUMMER COLLEGE:  a Pre-College Program for
 rising High School Juniors and Seniors. 
 
 SUMMER COLLEGE is a residential program designed to help students
 gain knowledge and skills and experience what life is like on a
 University Campus.  Each course intensive offers the option of 2
 college credits and there are offerings in the STEM area.  Students
 can apply for Forensic Chemistry, June 24-July 7 or The Arsenic
 Project with Professor Julian Tyson, July 8-July 21. They can
 participate in any one of the Mathematics Triple offered throughout
 June 24-August 4, where they will engage in creative and rigorous
 mathematical thinking and writing. There are limited spaces for
 highly motivated students to join existing funded programs of
 Research in Biology, Biochemistry, Plant, Soil and Insect Sciences
 from June 24-August 4, 
 
 In addition to their academic experience students will visit with
 admissions staff from the FIVE College Consortium, meet with College
 advisors and engage in The UMASS Power Up for College Success program
 developed to help students get the most out of their college or
 university experience. Weekend and evening activities include movies,
 campus events, trips to surrounding area cultural activities, visits
 to Amherst, and optional trips to Six Flags New England or Boston.

 Astronomy shortly.
