Youth Programs

We are excited to announce summer Youth Programs at Sacramento State in a virtual environment with new online classes and schedules. 

We have created fun and engaging online experiences that will give students the opportunity to: 

  • Explore educational and career opportunities in various fields
  • Discover new academic and creative challenges in topics not always available in regular school
  • Work with other students on real-world projects
  • Get a preview of college 
  • Learn from Sacramento State professors, community college faculty, area public and private school teachers and industry professionals

Virtual Programs Offered 

There are two programs offered for different age ranges, as follows:

  • Academic Talent Search: incoming 7th-10th graders will have the opportunity to explore new subjects, preview the college experience and get motivated for the next school year.
  • Summer Academies: incoming 9th-12th graders and graduating high school seniors can preview different career paths and college majors.

Youth Programs are a longstanding tradition at Sacramento State. Have questions? Get answers to frequently asked questions here.
