California State at Northridge: Summer Academic Enrichment Program (SAEP) Recently Updated

The Summer Academic Enrichment Program (SAEP) has been serving middle and high school students since 1979. We want the children who pass through our program to be better people--academically and personally--for having come our way. We believe that children are grown, and we want to provide the optimal place for good growth to happen. Find out more!

Middle School Programs (GRADES 6-9):

Our middle school classes were designed to reinforce and enhance the curriculum of the regular academic school year. In addition, we also offer unique and creative classes that strive to cultivate positive personal characteristics of students so that they develop a love for learning. Since all learning has gone virtual with the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, SAEP has transitioned our classes to a virtual platform. However, we believe that students interacting with their teachers and peers on a daily basis is a necessary and positive way to experience online learning. With this in mind, we will offer four, 50-minute classes. Our hope is that students will find classes they want to explore and are passionate about facilitating a pleasurable, summer learning experience.

The Enrichment program fee is $150/ class. Please see our course offerings and schedule for details.

High School Programs:

(Available for students in Grades 9-12)

Our high school programs have two distinct paths. 

Academic: A student can enroll in one year-long course for high school credit. The year-long course can earn your student 10 units (please check with your student's home school for pre-approval). Each year-long course is $475 (plus any associated lab/ textbook fees). 

Elective: The 2020 Virtual Elective program allows a student to enroll in four 75-minute classes. These courses do not earn students credit but are designed to provide students an advanced preview and additional skills in upcoming classes they may be taking in the fall. These classes are $225 each.
