The Summer Enrichment Program , an academically intensive five-week residential program, is offered to a limited number of incoming freshmen who would benefit from academic support activities before their first semester. This program helps freshmen become acclimated to the campus during the summer immediately preceding their first semester at the University. Participants take coursework in mathematics, English and study skills, and participate in a variety of academic support and enrichment activities. Freshmen accepted to the University through the Parallel Program may earn a place on the Newark campus by attending this session through the Summer Qualifier Program. Students must demonstrate their readiness to begin their freshman year on the main campus by successfully completing the five-week residential Summer Enrichment Program.
