The Catholic University of America’s on-campus summer camps are an opportunity for high school students to discover their potential by learning from the best and the brightest in their professions. Plus, it can be a great way to dive into a college environment and experience first-hand what the University can offer. From nursing to engineering to drama, there’s something for everyone! See some of the highlights from this year’s programs.
