ATTENTION: JUNIORS

Athens Academy is pleased to offer on-campus, school-day SAT testing for current juniors on March 6, 2019. The college guidance team encourages all students to take the SAT at least once (preferably in the spring of their junior year), and this is an opportunity to do so in a familiar environment. Last year was the first time that Athens Academy students took the SAT on campus during a school day, and feedback was very positive.

WHAT: SAT with Essay (3 hours, 50 minutes, plus breaks)

WHO: current Athens Academy juniors

WHEN: Wednesday, March 6, 2019 from 8:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. This date has been designated as an Upper School conference day, so students taking the test will not miss any classes. They will simply need to schedule their conferences in the afternoon when the test is over. Students who choose not to take the SAT at Athens Academy will only be on campus that day for conferences.

WHERE: depending on the number of students who sign up, we will dedicate a building or an area of a building for optimal testing conditions (quiet, no distractions, ample space, etc.).

COST: $80 (payable via link below). Registration includes two test prep sessions to be scheduled prior to the test date.

REGISTRATION: students must sign up for the test no later than Tuesday, January 15, 2019. The deadline to request accommodations (if they are not already approved) is Friday, January 11, 2019. We cannot accept any late registrations.

UGA VETCamp applications now open!

VetCAMP (Veterinary Career Aptitude and Mentoring Program) will house up to 52 high school students on UGA’s campus for seven days. At VetCAMP, students will be involved in various activities aimed at evaluating their skills and competitiveness as future veterinarians, providing mentorship and helping them experience veterinary medicine as an exciting career path. Click here to view a video that was produced from VetCAMP 2018.

The seven-day-long on-site summer program will provide opportunities for observation of and participation in various services in the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, the Poultry Diagnostic and Research Center and the Diagnostic Laboratories, as well as a field trip to the Georgia Aquarium for a behind-the-scenes view of the facilities.

Other activities include information sessions on admission requirements, research opportunities, the curriculum, study abroad opportunities, and other undeserved specializations in the field of veterinary medicine.

Applications are open to 10th, 11th, and 12th grade students and can be accessed by clicking HERE.
