Penn State hosts an annual summer camp for rising junior and senior high school students interested in Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences.
UPDATE:
Dear Students and Parents:
COVID-19 pandemic is still affecting our summer plans. Visitors are still not permitted to the campus as of today. Thus, our decision is to replace the summer camp with a possible in-person, one-day, hands-on activities in the fall. It will most likely be held in mid-October or early November pending COVID-19. Please check this web site for updates.
