College Admission Prep Camp (grades 11-12)
  • SAT test preparation with a proven curriculum
  • One-on-one tutoring for college admissions essay
  •  College admissions guidance - which schools to apply to, how the process works, etc.
  •  A fun, supervised, introduction to campus life
SAT Prep
Our experienced instructors employ Test Scholars' proven curriculum, which familiarizes students with the actual test, teaches test-taking strategies, and develops sound reasoning skills.
Essay Writing
Every student gets hours of one-on-one consulting with expert writing instructors. You and your Writing Instructor discuss topics for your Personal Statement, the structure, style and grammatical aspects of the essay and go over drafts and revisions together in your individual sessions.
College Guidance
The counseling component of the CAPC helps students identify schools best suited for them, and covers the development of time management and interviewing skills.
****
NEW! This year, we are excited to offer CAPC Resort at Club Med. Held at the Sandpiper Resort in
Port St. Lucie, Florida, students can go on a luxury resort vacation while going through Education Unlimited’s comprehensive College Admission Prep Camp curriculum.
****
* CAPC Intensive *is a longer, 18-day version of our College Admission Prep Camp, created because some students are highly motivated and would benefit from a more advanced and extensive version of our 11-day program.

An even more in-depth version of our CAPC curriculum, students at CAPC Intensive will:
  •  Take 5 full-length practice SAT tests to give them test-taking practice that closely mimics the actual SAT
  • Write three personal statement essays, ready or nearly ready for submission with their applications
  • Meet with two college guidance instructors so they receive plenty of feedback and insight about their personal college admission decisions.
  • Live in the dorms, experience college life, and go on multiple fun excursions around the area such as campus visits to Stanford and UC Santa Cruz and a full day white-water rafting excursion
CAPC Day Camp is a day only version of the CAPC program that will be held at Palo Alto High School in Palo Alto, CA.

I believe the tours were extremely well-planned, the student tour guides were open to my questions, and I was able to get a fairly accurate and clear impression of each school. Katerina Borghi, East Coast College Tour participant

The experience was fun and wonderful. My child loved seeing all the cities and opening her eyes up to different colleges. - parent of 2005 Tour participant

This was the greatest help for me! I got a 133 on my first PSAT and today I received a 204!
--Meghan Allen, Prep Camp Excel student

[CAPC] was extremely informative and eye opening. It also took away a lot of stress from the personal statement.  - Katya Mokfi, CAPC Intensive Camper

[My daughter] was very satisfied with the program and it increased her interest in striving for a top college.- Parent of 2007 College Admission Prep Camp participant
