Experience college life. Imagine your future.
Students participate in workshops covering the college admissions process, resume writing, and networking skills as well as experience cultural and social outings. In addition to robust academic programming, students explore Boston through weekend excursions. Students are also provided opportunities to explore on their own. We expect that participants will be able to manage their own time effectively in the safe environment provided for them as part of the Boston College Experience.
