Summer Immersion MCAT Course
 
Course Description
After only our second year in business, word-of-mouth was spreading so quickly that we had our first out-of-state student move to Utah just to take the Altius MCAT course. The Altius Summer Immersion MCAT Course was later created with the primary purpose of serving similar students from around the country who wanted very badly to be able to take the Altius course, but did not live near an Altius location. Since its inception, we have had students attend this course from all over the intermountain and pacific regions, the midwest, and even as far away as Pennsylvania and Florida.
 
Included in this course
  • Your own private MCAT tutor assigned to you for the entire course ($priceless)
  • 20 hours of designated one-on-one private tutoring ($3,750 value)
  • 24-hour acess to your tutor for questions

SAVINGS: $6,000-10,000 less than summer immersion courses offered by Kaplan and others.

 

HOUSING: Housing for out-of-town students is not included in the tuition. However, we will help you arrange for safe, affordable housing. Student housing in and around the BYU Campus in Provo, UT offers unbelievable short-term summer housing contracts for as low as $200-300 for 3 months. 

 

Typical Daily Schedule

Please note that this is a full-immersion MCAT course that requires 8 or more hours, five days per week for nearly three months. Those taking this course should plan to work a 40-hour week doing MCAT prep, with the weekends left open to relax, rejuvinate and prepare for the coming week. We strongly discourage students from working or taking classes while enrolled.

Vacations are nice . . . but 40s on the MCAT are better!

 

 

The Advantages of Full-Immersion

  • No classes, work, or extra-curricular activities to distract you.
  • Research indicates that, much like living in a foreign country while studying the language, learning is accelerated in a full-immersion environment.
  • With a tight schedule of regular meetings and classes, students have almost no ability to procrastinate even if it is generally their habit to do so.
  • Getting the MCAT out of the way during the summer allows more time for applications, secondaries, classes, etc. during the semester.
  • Many students express that the very act of temporarily relocating to a new city for the sole purpose of studying for the MCAT establishes an inherent discipline and seriousness that is beyond a student's normal level of dedication.
