I am excited to invite your students to apply to our 2022 Accelerated Business Program (ABP) from June 12 – 15, 2022 at the University of Georgia’s Terry College of Business. This program is open to all high school sophomores and juniors as well as seniors who have been admitted into the University of Georgia and plan to enroll this fall. Tuition is $195 thanks to generous corporate sponsorship. Applications are due March 18, 2022.

Participants get to preview "college life" by staying in a UGA residence hall, eating in the university’s award-winning dining halls, and attending a variety of instructional programs. The evenings are filled with fun outings, entertaining activities, and time to enjoy the camaraderie of fellow APB participants.

Students will often create lifelong friendships and gain a competitive advantage for college by acquiring the networking skills for internships and career advancement.

Thank you for your time, and I hope that you will visit our website to learn more and apply to this program. Please contact me at 706-542-1379 or rgroomes@uga.edu if you have questions.
