SAT/ACT Preparation
Specially designed for 4 Star camps by The Princeton Review for rising 10-12th grade students.

This SAT/ACT Preparations program is a condensed course offered by The Princeton Review that includes classroom instruction in a participatory and personal environment. The preparation courses are successful in raising students' scores by creating an engrossing academic environment with highly motivated teachers.

The Princeton Review's highly trained instructors explain concepts that will be tested on the exams, clarify scoring and teach proven test-taking techniques such as deciphering questions, eliminating misleading answer choices and saving time while taking the exam.

Students choosing this program will focus on SAT/ACT course work for the entire morning. They may take an afternoon writing class tailored specifically for the essay portion of the exams.

American Studies for International Students
4 Star proudly offers foreign students ages 14 - 18 the opportunity to increase their level of comfortably communicating in English, learn American history, government and culture, and experience the nuances of a college campus. Such instruction will allow those students contemplating college enrollment at an American institution the skills to complete the college application process and expand their knowledge of American life. The University of Virginia provides an excellent environment for these students as it is the creation of one of America's founding fathers, Thomas Jefferson.

Campers will increase their speaking and reading
skills in this immersion-style experience. Our
philosophy is to provide a combination of structured classroom learning along with the chance to venture out to nearby historical landmarks including Monticello, home of Jefferson, Washington D.C., and UVA’s Library of Special Documents to name a few. This philosophy presents many opportunities to speak English and assimiliate into the American culture, which reinforces the classroom work.

Senior Program – for rising 10, 11, 12 graders
Our mission in the Senior Program is to help provide students with the type of experience and mentoring which will foster the personal growth needed to face the special challenges of transitioning to young adulthood, college and beyond. Students attending the Senior Program will enjoy a fun-filled summer of personal growth, intellectual rewards and self-confidence in a safe and secure environment.
