"ALP is a Wisconsin Center for Academically Talented Youth program for high school students in grades 9-12 and qualifying 8th graders. It is a 3-week long, residential program with accelerated coursework for academically talented students. During the 3 weeks, students cover a year's worth of high school or semester's worth of college coursework and may be able to earn credit at their home school. AP and honors courses are available. Many traditional and non-traditional courses are offered yearly - check the website for all available courses.
Time outside of class is spent in recreational activities in small groups or as a camp whole, including weekend visits to local attractions, a mall-crawl, and Forth of July activities. While on campus, students enjoy all aspects of college life - living in dorms, eating in the cafeteria and use of recreational facilities.
NEW THIS YEAR: A commuter option is available, with or without a meal plan."
