Students in our 3½-week enrichment program may CHOOSE a summer curriculum which includes any combination of two or three non-credit summer courses, high school credit courses, the full Kaplan SAT or ACT prep class or half of The Kaplan SAT Prep class (Math or Verbal) plus one or two enrichment or high school credit courses. Another option for students in our Penn State non-credit summer program is to select 1 internship (approximately 3 hours per day) with or without 1 enrichment or high school credit course.

The following selection of non-credit preparatory courses and internships are offered to all students enrolled in our Penn State enrichment program. These non-credit summer courses and internships are designed to assist pre-collegians by offering opportunities not generally given as a part of a regular high school curriculum. Availability of all enrichment courses/internships will depend upon the interest and registration of accepted students. Summer Study Programs reserves the right to change course availability (add or delete courses) and alter scheduling. An updated list of all Penn State non-credit summer course offerings and more complete course descriptions will be sent to all accepted students in the spring.
