Summer Programs
Pre-College Programs

Howell HallEach summer we welcome high school students from all over the country to our safe, beautiful campus to participate in exciting academic institutes and sports camps. These programs provide young people with opportunities to learn more about their fields of interest, to sample life on a college campus, and to meet other students with similar interests and academic ability.

Our campus is located in Alfred, New York, a peaceful village in Western New York State, where summer days are warm and nights are cool and comfortable. Surrounded by rolling hills and beautiful meadows and valleys, Alfred University is the perfect place for students to spend an enjoyable week learning more about a favorite subject or sport.

All of our programs are staffed by distinguished members of the Alfred University faculty. With Alfred University's excellence in teaching and commitment to offering quality programming, these institutes are among the most educational and fun collegiate summer academic programs in the country.

Our popular sports camps offer pre-college-aged athletes a great opportunity to advance their skills working with AU's award-winning head coaches and assistant coaches. Sports campers benefit from the many resources of our McLane Physical Education Center and Fields, and the Bromeley-Daggett Equestrian Center at Maris Cuneo Equine Park.

When not in class, students enjoy organized recreational activities as well as free time for relaxation. Out-of-class supervision is provided by our team of Resident Directors (RDs) and Resident Advisors (RAs), who are specially trained to serve as camp counselors, mentors and friends. Students stay in clean, modern residence halls and meals are served in the University dining hall. Living, dining and learning together, they have ample opportunity to get to know each other well and develop lasting friendships.
