Applications for summer writing program for Latino youth being accepted

UGA’s Center for Continuing Education is now accepting applications for ¡Vamos a la Universidad! A Summer Experience for Talented Latino ­Writers.

This free, four-week intensive program will offer the state’s young Latino scholars a unique opportunity to experience a learning environment focused on developing their own talents and ­abilities.

Students will attend four days per week, with seven hours of academic content per day. Eligible students will receive one Carnegie unit toward graduation.

Students will be divided, based on a combination of age, grade level and initial writing samples, into two classes.
