Summer Bridge is designed to assist first-semester freshmen in making a successful transition from high school to college.  Through Summer Bridge, students become acclimated to campus life at ASU, gain access to student support programs and services, and learn effective academic skills.

Summer Bridge gives entering freshmen the opportunity to jump-start their educational careers at ASU.  Students can earn up to 7 academic credits during a five-week summer session, taking advantage of smaller classes with tutoring and structured study sessions.  Living on campus, students build a sense of community and develop a network of peers.  Students also benefit from their interactions with faculty, tutors, peer mentors, residential staff, and program staff.

Summer Bridge 2008 will be offered July 7-August 8, 2008.  Interested students are encouraged to review eligibility requirements before submitting an application.
