Summer Bridge Program

The Summer Bridge Program serves as a foundational experience for incoming Scott Scholars, immersing them in the core values and competencies of the program before the academic year begins. By moving into their living-learning communities a month early, students build strong connections with peers and mentors while engaging in intensive learning around design thinking, leadership, technical literacy, healthcare management, and global perspectives. This early start not only fosters a sense of belonging and collaboration but also equips scholars with the tools to make an immediate impact. The Summer Bridge Program is a transformational launchpad that sets the tone for the student's journey of innovation, service, and leadership.
