Campuses

From the unofficial Duke TIP Wiki

Note: this article deals with campuses for TIP Summer Studies programs. For other TIP programs, see their respective pages.

Duke TIP Summer Studies is held at several campuses throughout the Southeastern US. TIP is split into two groups: the Academy for Summer Studies and the Center for Summer Studies. The Academy for Summer Studies, in general, is for lower-scoring students than the Center (for detailed score tables, see score criteria).

In the Academy, students may attend Summer Studies Programs at the University of Kansas, Appalachian State University and Texas A&M as rising 8th graders, 9th graders, 10th graders, and 11th graders.

Students in the Center may only attend Davidson College as rising 8th graders. As rising 9th graders, they may attend either Davidson or Duke, either Duke East or Duke West (commonly just "East" and "West").

Both students in the Academy and in the Center may attend the Summer Studies program at Duke Marine Lab.

TIP at Texas is located at Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. It's a relatively new campus, but is quickly starting more traditions and activities. TiP at TAMU is an academy site also.

It is an interesting note that many students who earn the proper scores to study at the center turn it down to study at the academy.
