The Summer Institute culminates with students taking the Publications Specialist Capstone Course. This class is designed to tie the various educational components of the Institute together, with students learning how to work with real-world clients to create an integrated marketing campaign. The outcome of the course is a final project that students can use to build their professional portfolio. Applicants must also take a placement exam for Introduction to Operating Systems. Admission is competitive, and applications are reviewed in the order they are received.
Early application is recommended, as space is limited.
Upon acceptance to the Summer Institute, students will be promptly notified. Deposits will be refunded if you are not accepted into the program or if the maximum capacity has been reached. In order to receive a Publication Specialist Certificate, students must complete all of the Institute's classes. There will be no waivers or substitutions. Many national chains also have hotels in the area.
