All new freshmen coming to the University of Guam this August are invited to register for the Triton Summer Academy, a FREE one-week program designed to boost college-level readiness in writing and math and to acquaint new students with university life.
The UOG Triton Summer Academy offers students to the opportunity to:
Experience college life with your peers before the semester begins.
Take part in workshops designed to prepare you for the UOG math and English placement tests.
Get direct, personal support from Financial Aid, Admissions, and other student services available at UOG.
“The Triton Summer Academy is a free, fun, and focused opportunity to help our newest students feel prepared to enter college-level classes and to help them meet new friends and feel a sense of belonging,” said Dr. Gena Rojas, Interim Dean of Enrollment Management and Student Success.
The one-week academy sessions will include a three-hour agenda daily, from Monday to Friday. Every day, the students will engage in an hour-long English Workshop, an hour-long math workshop, and an hour-long workshop focused on financial literacy and various student support services. The academy will also provide students the opportunity to test out of the developmental math class, providing them with a faster track to earning a degree.
