Explore-A-College

June 21 - July 4, 2009

Want an easy way to support Earlham?

Tell a young person about Explore-A-College, a college-level summer program for high school students currently in 9th, 10th and 11th grades. A note from an alum sent with the application waives the $50 registration fee.

Over 30% of Explore-A-College participants find out about the program from an Earlhamite and 25% of all participants enroll at Earlham College.

Please spread the word!

East Africa/Tanzania Program

See wonderful photos and read about exploring the wildlife, living with families, and learning about the challenges of Tanzania via web updates submitted by Brent, Nancy and the students.
