UW-Madison Badger Precollege: Accelerated Learning Program (ALP)

The Badger Precollege Accelerated Learning Program (ALP) is an intense, three-week summer camp designed to push students to the next academic level while housing them in an intimate learning environment. Students enroll in a single course for an in-depth experience not possible in crowded high school schedules.

Students gain insight from instructors who are experts in their fields. Above all, ALP students are carefully selected to cultivate an optimal learning environment where gifted students can interact, learn, and grow with each other. Time outside of class is thoughtfully planned and coordinated by residential staff to foster additional social and emotional connections between students.
