Summer Enrichment Opportunities

Scrubs Camp
 

Scrubs Camp is a healthcare career immersion program where students explore various aspects of healthcare and the careers that exist within. The goal of Scrubs Camp is to get students excited and interested in pursuing a career in healthcare, and to go back home motivated and focused on what they can do in high school to prepare for that potential career.

Scrubs Camps are offered as both day camps and overnight camps, where students get to stay overnight on a college campus. Many of the camps offer scholarships that cover the tuition (see each camp for details).

WHO: Students entering grades 9-12 in Fall 2024

WHEN: Camps range from 2-5 days; dates are varied

COST: $300-400, but scholarships are available at all camps (apply early)
