The Delaware Department of Education is partnering again with TeenSHARP this year to offer Delaware high school students the opportunity to attend the Delaware Goes to College Academy during Spring Break (April 1-4).

Program Overview

DGCA supports a broad group of students throughout the state of Delaware in the college application and decision process. There is no cost to students to participate. This is a virtual program. Selected scholars receive free high-quality college admissions consulting all year long. Registration Deadline is March 18, 2024

The Delaware Goes to College Academy can support you as you:

  • Pick the right high school classes.
  • Earn top grades and keep them high.
  • Find the best leadership and extracurricular opportunities, including those taking place in the summer.
