My name is Dawn Wilkenfeld and I am the Assistant Director for Early College Programs at Montclair State University.  We have a variety of exciting opportunities this summer for your high school students to: Experience campus life Explore their interests Discover their passion Learn in our small class sizes alongside undergraduate students Receive support from our dedicated success coach Transform their learning experience Find success both inside and outside of the classroom Some of our upcoming programs include: Hispanic Student College Institute: This program provides a unique and highly interactive opportunity for students of Hispanic/Latinx descent to strengthen their knowledge on issues related to transitioning to college, future academic success, and applying to college. Italian Immersion Summer Program: Taught fully in Italian, this 3-credit program immerses students in Italian culture and prepares students to move with confidence from Italian 3 to an AP or advanced Italian class. Model United Nations Summer Academy: Taught by a former UN diplomat, students can spend a week living on campus this summer, earn 3 college credits, and learn how diplomats conduct research, deliver statements, draft resolutions, and negotiate.  Early College Scholars: High achieving students have the opportunity to gain a competitive edge and begin earning degree credits before committing to a college or university.  This program is offered during the summer, fall, and spring semesters. Pre-Law Summer Academy: Through this ten-day residential experience, students will receive coaching from attorneys and law students to prepare for the mock trial competition, academic lectures on legal issues, as well as information about the law school admission process and law career opportunities. If you think any of your students might be interested, I would be delighted to discuss further!  Please feel free to fill out this form to set up a virtual meeting or phone call, or to request a school visit for me to come speak with your students.
