Challenge Program

[u/Junior-Rock8227]

This year, I was conditionally accepted to Mines. I have to participate in the Challenge program over the summer from June 6th to July 8th and I have to take Calculus and Chemistry over that time period. For those who have don’t it before, what should I expect?

Challenge alum here! I got into mines because I played football, but my grades and scores weren’t great. Challenge was beneficial for me because I never took calc in HS and wasn’t super mature at 17. Learned a lot, got an understanding of what the workload would look like and actually had a pretty good time in the challenge program. Wasn’t the best mines student, but I graduated in 2014! Still know a few folks I went through challenge with 17 years later.
