Summer Bridge Program

Avila University’s Summer Bridge Program is an academic experience that helps bridge the gap between high school and college. First-year, first-time college students have the opportunity to enroll in a 3-week course, create meaningful relationships, and become familiar with campus resources before arriving at Avila in the fall – giving these students an edge and setting them on the path to success.
