If you asked any of the students that have participated in MAAPP they will tell you that week was challenging and difficult, but they would also say that the week gave them an advantage that other students did not have. The following feedback is from some of the students in the 2007 cohort.

What I enjoyed most about the program was:

• being able to get a head start on college.
• getting to know my way around the campus and meeting teachers and other students.
• being here all week early and knowing I'm ahead of the game.

The most important thing I learned from my participation in MAAPP was:

• how to use Blackboard and Campus Web.
• time management.
• that I can do this, I am meant to be here..
• good studying habits.
• college is way different than high school.
• that college is going to be challenging.
• how to be organized and get my work done.

If one thing could be improved for next year's program it would be:

• nothing. I liked everything.
• no math...lol...jk...I think every part was needed, such a great program.
• nothing, it was all worth it. I feel like I accomplished something.
• nothing. I feel the program is great the way it is because it needs to be a wake up call. Now I can't wait until the first day of class.

How did the upper class mentors assist you during the week? Where they a valuable resource to you?
