Since 1993, the Fairfax Collegiate summer program has provided students with challenging and engaging enrichment courses in writing, mathematics, test prep, speech and debate, programming, engineering, web design, robotics, video filmmaking, art and photography.
Small classes, running for two weeks at a time throughout the summer, take place in a relaxed and informal atmosphere at our thirteen locations around the Northern Virginia area.
Courses are built around creative activities that are fun and entertaining as well as informative.
Summer program instructors include undergraduate and graduate students at leading universities, as well as area public and private school teachers.
They take into account each student's interests and needs, and students are able to get help from a teacher at any time.
