The University of Guam invites all new freshmen coming to UOG this August to register for the Triton Summer Academy. During this free, one-week college readiness program, students will:
Experience college life with their peers before the semester begins
Take part in workshops designed to prepare them for the UOG math and English placement tests
Get direct support from Financial Aid, Admissions, and other student services available at UOG
“The Triton Summer Academy empowers incoming freshmen to start strong by equipping them with the tools, knowledge, and support needed for a successful transition into college,” said Dr. Gena Rojas, Interim Dean of Enrollment Management and Student Success. “It is a launchpad for students to step into college life with purpose, confidence, and a sense of belonging.”
Interested students are encouraged to sign up for one of ten cohort sessions offered by the academy. Each cohort session will include a three-hour agenda every day from Monday to Friday.
