We take pride in offering our participants the unique opportunity
to visit premiere institutions. Students tour campuses and visit with faculty
and students to learn about their institution. This gives students a chance to
get a “feel” for the type of college they would be most comfortable attending.
Each year students tour various colleges and universities. Along the way, students are given a chance to visit museums, cultural festivals, and educational/historical sites. Students have toured colleges in Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, Illinois, and of course Montana.

complete the application process; and, how to develop the skills needed to
survive in college. UB pays for one college application fee per
student.
Scholastic Advising:

high school counselors to help plan the academic future of each
