Discover Your Path: American Indian/Alaska Native College Prep Camp

Native American Indian youth make up a small percentage of students attending college and completing degrees. The College's week-long Discover Your Path: American Indian/Alaska Native College Prep Camp for high school-aged youth and incoming college freshman, held each summer in South Lake Tahoe, is designed to help address this disparity.
