Academic Enrichment
In this section:
The Summer Academy is a six-week program consisting of two clustered classes (ENC 1101 and SLS 1510), a math immersion, and student engagement seminars.
Our aim is to connect low-income, academically underprepared, and first-generation students with faculty, staff, and resources across TSC's campus to help them achieve a successful academic, social, and personal transition to TSC. Students in the program will work collaboratively with other learners. They will develop the skills necessary to thrive academically and reach their personal goals of certification, graduation, and/or transfer.
The ideal student should not have earned credit for ENC1101 through dual enrollment or Advanced Placement. Moreover, the ideal student will demonstrate (1) financial need, (2) benefit from intentional academic support, and (3) being a first-time college student
