1.Introducing EDUplus US Summer Camp 2026

The US Summer Camp 2026 is organized by EDUplus Vietnam — a STEAM education center — in collaboration with The Academy at Harvard Square (TAHS), a reputable educational institution known for its outstanding academic excellence. This short-term overseas study program is scheduled to take place from July 1st to July 13th, 2026, designed for secondary students aged 13 and above.

EDUplus Vietnam’s US Summer Camp 2026 is built around in-depth academic experiences, offering students the opportunity to participate in learning sessions at prestigious institutions. In addition, students will visit renowned Ivy League universities such as Yale and Princeton. The program also includes immersive field trips to iconic landmarks, allowing students to experience famous destinations like the Statue of Liberty, Boston Harbor, Times Square, and the White House firsthand.

2.US Summer Camp Highlights

a. Academic Immersion: In-Depth Learning & Breakthrough Thinking

The most distinctive highlight of this oversea summer camp is the opportunity for students to participate in intensive academic sessions with professors and instructors from Harvard and MIT, such as Avanthika Pulijila (Harvard), Hanqi Zhang (Harvard), and Ahmed Harza (MIT), among others.

Here, an advanced educational approach helps students transform their mindset:

• Learning to ask smarter questions: Instead of simply searching for ready-made answers, students are trained to frame problems and explore the deeper essence of every topic.

• A culture of discussion and critical debate: Every idea is discussed, challenged, and refined. Students learn to defend their perspectives while also embracing feedback to strengthen their thinking.

• Interdisciplinary integration: Technology, Science, Entrepreneurship, and Leadership come together in one dynamic environment, giving students a multidimensional view of the modern world.

b. Excursion in Boston: Discovering the Intellectual Cradle of America

As part of EDUplus Vietnam’s Summer Study Abroad Program, students will explore the city of Boston — more than just a destination, it is a living museum and one of America’s greatest centers of knowledge. The Boston journey takes students to the Boston Old State House, where key historical moments that shaped modern America unfolded; Boston Harbor, where they can enjoy the peaceful beauty of one of the nation’s most historic harbors; and Quincy Market, a vibrant shopping and dining destination with nearly 200 years of history. Students will also visit Harvard University and MIT, walking through their iconic campuses and experiencing the inspiring academic atmosphere of these historic institutions — places that have nurtured some of the world’s greatest minds.

c. Ivy League Field Trip: Visit the World’s Most Prestigious Universities

Instead of only seeing them on a screen, students in our Summer Study Abroad Camp will experience some of the most prestigious universities in the United States firsthand, including Yale, Princeton, Columbia, and other top institutions. Walking through picturesque campuses and learning about student life, they will feel the unique academic spirit of each environment for themselves. This direct exposure not only broadens their perspective but also naturally sparks inspiration — making the dream of studying abroad feel more tangible and motivating than ever before.

d. Trip to New York City: Experience the Pulse of the “City That Never Sleeps”

Beyond Boston, the US Summer Camp 2026 will take students to the vibrant capital of energy — New York City. Nothing compares to checking in at the dazzling Times Square, walking through the iconic Broadway theatre district, or admiring the majestic Statue of Liberty from the harbor. In addition, visits to leading museums and cultural centers will broaden students’ perspectives, helping them learn to adapt to diversity while fully experiencing one of the most dynamic cities in the world.

e. Trip to Washington, DC: A Journey to the “Heart” of America

The next stop on the summer camp journey is Washington, D.C. — the capital where many of the world’s most important decisions are shaped. Here, students will have the opportunity to witness iconic symbols of power such as The White House, The Capitol Building, and the Washington Monument. Beyond admiring the architecture, students will immerse themselves in the vast knowledge of the Smithsonian museum system. From natural history discoveries and advances in space science to unique cultural heritage, the Washington, D.C. experience will broaden their perspectives and help them better understand the milestones that have shaped the strength of the United States.

3.What Will Students Gain After 14 Days at EDUplus Vietnam’s US Summer Camp 2026?

• Global Vision & Leadership Mindset: By learning and living alongside like-minded peers who share similar ambitions, students will learn to view challenges from multiple perspectives. Direct exposure to an international environment helps broaden their worldview while building confidence, independence, and leadership presence for the future.

• Academic Confidence & Critical Thinking Skills: Through workshops, case studies, and field research, students naturally develop academic English communication skills. Instead of feeling intimidated by challenging questions, they gain the confidence to debate, think critically, and refine their own ideas.

• Deep Cultural Understanding: Visiting historical landmarks and major cultural centers allows students to gain meaningful insight into American society and values. This deeper cultural awareness becomes a strong foundation for adapting and thriving in any global environment.

• A Valuable Advantage for University Applications: The growth, initiative, and maturity gained from this journey become powerful highlights in a student’s academic profile. The experience provides authentic personal stories and reflections that can strengthen essays and interviews, helping applications stand out with a unique and personal voice.

• Clearer Future Direction: Many students excel academically but remain unsure about their future path. Fourteen days immersed in the real learning environments of Ivy League universities help students discover their true interests, guiding them toward the right major and school while saving time and effort before entering university.
