Find Your Focus is an academic camp intended to offer bright high school students new perspectives on the wealth of opportunities a liberal arts college education provides. Students will explore different academic options to discover that one of the most unique facets of a liberal arts education is that a student has the ability to diversify his or her education, choosing from a variety of disciplines to create a well-rounded experience. Each student will enroll in three courses—two in the morning and one in the afternoon—taught by Juniata College faculty members. Students will also listen to large group lectures designed to answer some of the most popular questions prospective college students raise, including: how does the college admissions process work and how can I make my application successful; what is study abroad, should I do it, and how does it work; among others. To introduce students to the social atmosphere of college life, each evening they will be invited to attend large group activities where they can relax and interact with peers.
