Access Programs - University of Puget Sound Home of Summer Academic Challenge, College Initiatives, and Access Scholars! Programs are available for students in grades seven through twelve.

The Access Programs' Summer Academic Challenge is a tuition-free summer math and science enrichment program enhances the programs provided during the academic year and prepares students for the next academic year. Students study material centered on a theme that changes from year to year. Themes from past years have included flight, salmon survival, sustainability, and communication. Students stud

y specific mathematics and scientific topics that support the theme and relate those topics to larger questions. They attend classes, build models, execute computer programs, conduct laboratory experiments, and participate in field trips. Teachers are drawn from both the community and the university. Current university students serve as mentors and teaching assistants to the young people participating in the program.
