CAMPUS Program
The College Achievement & Multicultural Program for Unique Students (CAMPUS) is an academic and college preparation initiative. CAMPUS is a high school college access program designed to remove barriers and/or meet the specific needs of first-generation college-bound students attending Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS).
CAMPUS seeks to provide support and encouragement to students who demonstrate the ability to achieve academic success and college admission. Admission to and graduation from college are among the goals of the CAMPUS program. Students must commit to attending mandatory CAMPUS meetings and/or classes during the school day and CAMPUS activities throughout the year. Parents are also an integral part of CAMPUS and its success and are encouraged to participate in program initiatives throughout the school year.
Application Process
Students may apply to the program in the spring of their 8th grade year, or if space is available, during the school year of grades 9 - 11. An online application can be obtained through the LCPS website. Students must submit a completed online application and one recommendation to be considered for the program. The CAMPUS Online Application portal will open on January 4 and close on March 5, 2021.
