FAQ
Where and when are the camps?
The camps are held between early June and late August each summer. They are held at college campuses across the US based on interest level in a particular region.
How much do they cost?
The cost varies depending on what the college charges us. We will provide actual costs when we determine where the camps will be held. The normal cost is in the $1,000 range however at times we are able to find sponsors who will donate money which lowers the cost we need to charge our students.

What does a typical week look like?
Students generally arrive Sunday afternoon and are formed into teams. Each team spends most of the week developing and running their business. We also have fun activities like a talent show, formal dining experience, recreational time on campus, great speakers, and we always try to get to at least one business and one amusement park. The week concludes Saturday morning with each team presenting their business and results to all the families and a panel of judges.

Anything but. We strive to teach you the things you aren’t learning in school to get a leg up in the world’s next economy, entrepreneurship. We aim to make to program as fun and interactive as possible to bring out your entrepreneurial creativity and help you explore yourself.
