pics of YOUTHINK’s 2019 College Camp at USC. Students spent three lovely days diving into all things college on the University of Southern California campus. Workshops included picking the right type of college, what the office of admissions looks for in a student application, writing a personal statement, surviving after college and much more. Students also received an amazing tour of USC. College visits are an important part of choosing the right school for you. Did you take any campus tours this summer? Comment and let us know where!
