Students apply in their junior year of high school, and if accepted, attend a 5-day summer program that provides them with academic workshops (ACT, college prep, choosing majors, applying to and navigating college), as well as connecting them with our office and the various services we provide to students throughout their BYU experience and beyond (cultural, personal, and financial advisement).
Normally SOAR is a 5-day in-person event where we bring students to campus. Because of COVID-19 we are still offering SOAR in an all-virtual format.
