This community is for students who have been accepted to the Program for the Exceptionally Gifted (PEG). PEG is a radical acceleration program that allows students as young as 13 to skip high school and dive right into college, living within a community of their intellectual and social peers. Students in this community are invited to participate in other age-appropriate co-curricular and extra-curricular activities that are social, cultural, or for enjoyment and personal growth. PEG students live in Tyson Hall for up to 2 years, which is a living-learning community with adult advisors in the building 24 hours a day.
During the first semester, and when circumstances allow, PEG students will take their own section of ENG 102. This course gives students an English credit they need in order to graduate.
Note: Additional application and interview are required.
