By participating in the MI GEAR UP Program, students have the opportunity to take a field trip during the school day to visit college campuses in the area. The MI GEAR UP Program at Michigan State University (MSU) frequently holds visits on campus, so students are able to explore the various educational resources available. In addition to campus visits to Michigan State University, students have the opportunity to explore other university and college campuses in Michigan, through MI GEAR UP Program campus visits during the school year or by participating in the MI GEAR UP Summer Program!
The MI GEAR UP Program has a partnership with Michigan’s 15 public universities, so the programs are able to collaborate and prepare campus visits for students that include useful information in preparation for post-secondary education, similar to the information provided to students through the MI GEAR UP Program at MSU during programming.
