Ready, Saint, Go!

• A five-week (July 5 – August 9) fully online synchronous program with opportunities for learning, programming, and peer engagement.
• The program runs Monday – Thursday from 5:00 p.m. – 9:15 p.m. and Friday from 5:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time, with additional opportunities to engage with peer tutors and other support during the day.
• You earn six college credits by taking two courses over the summer – a writing course and a college success course.
• Learning is connected with a support system to reinforce good academic habits, workshops that demonstrate how successful students approach college life, and opportunities for mentorship.

• Discover how to be your best academic self – how to manage time well, prioritize, and study – through participation in SEM 101, Success and Excellence at Marymount.
• Earn six credits that count toward graduation.
• Build relationships with other recent high school graduates, peer tutors, and mentors.
• Engage in workshops delivered by faculty and staff on being a well-connected, successful student.

In order to participate fully in this program, you must agree with the following expectations:

• I have access to Zoom on a desktop or laptop (not a phone) with a camera and sound.
• I have access to a stable internet connection.
• I will log on and participate in all aspects of the program with the camera and sound on.
• I will spend additional time (outside of class time) participating in required online activities or having one-on-one meetings with my instructors and/or tutors via Zoom. The days/times for this work are flexible.
• I will do homework assignments that must be completed outside of class time (as is true for all college classes). While the time required for assignments can vary each week, I will plan on setting aside 10 hours per week for this work.
• I have identified a planner or calendar that I will use to keep track of assignments, activities, classes, and meetings for the program.

• The Ready, Saint, Go! program costs $3,000, which covers the cost of the 6 academic credits you can earn toward graduation (a 60 percent tuition discount) while receiving extra academic support, workshops, mentoring, and an introduction to college life.
