2024 Lane College Dragon Academy: Summer Bridge Program

Dragon Academy is a six-week summer bridge program designed to ease First Year students’ transition from High School to College. Dragon Academy’s aim is multilayered. The program seeks to: develop scholastic habits while earning between six(6) and nine(9) college credit hours, further cultivate leadership capacity, engage in culturally enriching activities, inspire spiritual maturation, and connect with peers, faculty and staff. In all the program supports the college’s mission of providing access to underrepresented, underprepared, and first-generation college students by guiding emerging Lanites towards realizing their “Power of Potential”.
