nine-month program during the academic year provides academic counseling and instruction, along with enrichment and social experiences, while the six-week summer academy adds more classes and college visits, and also includes a two-week residential stay. During your stay on the Purdue Fort Wayne campus, you’ll live in our comfortable and convenient student housing apartments to get the true college experience.
