The program is open to high school juniors, seniors, and recent graduates who self-identify as Pacific Islander or Asian American, per grant requirements. Interested individuals must be U.S. citizens to participate. Camp PROA is aimed at helping students be college and career ready through various engaging activities and opportunities in STEM fields and more.
The camp will be held on Northern Marianas College's campus from July 3 - July 14, 2023 on Saipan, Tinian, and Rota, simultaneously. Participation in the camp is absolutely free, with breakfast, lunch and afternoon snacks provided as well. The camp will conclude with a trip to Managaha Island and Saipan for the Camp PROA Banquet.
