Two Campuses. One Summer.
Our combination programs allow you to have both experiences so you can maximize time in the classroom and time on and off campus with friends.
With our UCLA and University of Michigan combination summer program, you can compare life on two spirited campuses and take courses from all areas of interest to really see which major you'd like best. You can also spend up to five weeks away from home - that means the most time with your friends, old and new.
