ACCELERATED PRGRAM (SUMMER SCHOOL) RESUMES
On the 1st June, 2019, our summer students arrived on campus to begin summer school as scheduled on the Academic Calendar for the 2018/2019 Academic Year. Our summer school students enrolled into Palm Institute in February of 2019. The summer students will be on campus from June 6th to August 14th, 2019. During their stay on campus, they will take courses that were run during the first semester of the 2018/2019 Academic Year to enable them catch up with colleagues who enrolled in September, 2018. The lectures are intensive, packed with activities and projects designed to give our summer students an excellent experience similar to what their counterparts who enrolled in September experienced. All our summer students are beneficiaries of the $1/Ghc 1 for Higher Education Project Funds.
