All incoming freshmen at the University of Guam this August are invited to register for the Triton Summer Academy, a free one-week program designed to boost college-level readiness in writing and math and to acquaint new students with university life.

The UOG Triton Summer Academy offers students to the opportunity to:

  • Experience college life with your peers before the semester begins.
  • Take part in workshops designed to prepare you for the UOG math and English placement tests.
  • Get direct, personal support from Financial Aid, Admissions, and other student services available at UOG.

“The Triton Summer Academy is a free, fun, and focused opportunity to help our newest students feel prepared to enter college-level classes and to help them meet new friends and feel a sense of belonging,” said Dr. Gena Rojas, Interim Dean of Enrollment Management and Student Success.

The one-week academy sessions will include a three-hour agenda daily, from Monday to Friday.

Every day, the students will engage in an hour-long English Workshop, an hour-long math workshop, and an hour-long workshop focused on financial literacy and various student support services.

The academy will also provide students the opportunity to test out of the developmental math class, providing them with a faster track to earning a degree.
