What You Gain from a Summer at Landmark College
Our 暑期大学预备课程, for college-bound high school graduates, is all about preparation—through practice and exposure—for that crucial first semester of college. 这也是关于 understanding the changing role of a high school student to a college student. Even the most high-achieving students often face unanticipated difficulties in their first semester of college possibly putting them at risk for failure or struggle. Problems often arise not from a lack of academic abilities, but from the enormous jump in independence required in a college environment.
Students are immersed in a living/learning experience that offers a real “taste” of college life and the college-level work they will encounter in the fall. They develop a clear understanding of their personal learning strengths and needs, and discover how resources and self-advocacy can support their success in college. This preview of college life can help to alleviate anxiety and foster the confidence needed as students encounter the new demands of college.
谁应该参加这个项目?
This program is designed to help students who want to:
- Learn to articulate individual learning issues that need attention
- Identify the specific supports and accommodations they’ll need in college—and how to access them
- Experience a typical introductory college-level lecture class
- Learn and practice self-advocacy skills they’ll need to navigate through their freshman year
- 运用组织能力, 有用的习惯, and useful behaviors needed to succeed at college—and identify problem habits and behaviors that might surface during their first year
- 开始…的过程 transitioning from an adolescent to a young adult
Students who struggle with social anxiety and have difficulty making friends have the option of participating in social support 活动, including social pragmatic workshops and student affairs events. Resident assistants are available as peer mentors to provide information about 活动 and to help students feel connected to the Landmark community.
Rite of Passage: Transition to Adulthood
2024年夏季新品 Through experiential programming students will begin to understand and embrace their transition from adolescence to emerging adulthood. Students will gain interpersonal and practical skills while exploring their own values and designing a service project to bring change to a community they care about.
- Programming will introduce students to the Rite of Passage (RoP) framework and mindset, and will facilitate skill development, by developing an executable service project.
- Advising meetings and academic courses will introduce fundamental skills and ideas that will support and supplement work on the RoP service project.
- The co-curricular programming will further support student by reinforcing associated skills and strategies to building off the lessons used elsewhere in addition to regular living and learning skills delivered as part of the 住宅 curriculum.
