Students who attend the summer program acquire techniques to manage their time, energy, and finances, and gain extensive training in college-level communication, presentation, writing, and reading skills.
Kevin Davis, a Quantum U facilitator, says the program is unique because, “Quantum U helps students transition from the attitude and skills of a youth to the attitude and skills of an adult. They learn to go from the mindset of ‘things happen to me’ to ‘I make things happen for me’.”
Quantum U is a program developed by the same people who created SuperCamp, a learning and life skills academic summer camp for middle school and high school students that launched in 1982 and has graduated over 55,000 students worldwide. An important aspect of both SuperCamp and Quantum U is that students learn how to learn, meaning they discover their own learning style and they are taught several practical learning techniques in the areas of note-taking, studying and memorization.
Joe Chapon, Vice President of Quantum Learning Network, indicated that Quantum U is a smart investment for parents. “College is not just an extension of high school. Instead it represents a new paradigm in school, learning and autonomy,” said Mr. Chapon. “And given the cost of a college education, sending a son or daughter to Quantum U for eight days to give them a head start on college is a very wise decision.”
Mr. Chapon stated that Quantum U will be held at Colorado College in Colorado Springs, July 23-30. Only 80 students from around the U.S. will be accepted for this program. Students in the program live on campus for the eight days. The cost is $2,395 inclusive of tuition, room and board.
