Hampton University

Hampton University is genuinely concerned with the difficulty many students have in the transition from high school to college. In 1953, Hampton University established a remedy to this widespread situation, by initiating an educational program known as the Pre-College Summer Session for High School Graduates.

This sincere commitment is still alive and well at Hampton University and is now known as the Hampton University Pre-College Program.This program also has scholarships but you will have to contact the institution.
