Lynx Summer Academy

June 6th, 2022 - July 30th, 2022

 Lynx Summer Academy fills up quickly, be sure to apply early! 

The academy provides newly admitted first-year first-generation students who will start in the fall semester the opportunity to enroll in four credit hours over the summer. Students selected for Lynx Summer Academy must also have accepted their fall admission to CU Denver. And here's the added bonus—summer academy students don't have to pay tuition or fees! 

If you are a first-year incoming Fall 2022 student who indicates you are first-generation on your CU Denver Fall 2022 application, you will receive an email with more information on how to fill out the interest form. 

Space is limited and a spot in the program is not guaranteed.

The Lynx Summer Academy provides two to three different tracks for students to choose from to help them get a head start for college.

• Learn the most effective ways to study and take tests
• Utilize small class sizes to engage with faculty and peer mentors
• Engage in learning experiences beyond the classroom
  
• Explore majors and careers
