Drew Summer Transition Program

The Drew Summer Program is a transition program designed to help first-year students who have documented disabilities, and intend to register with the Office of Accessibility Resources, acclimate to Drew. The program is intended to boost self-advocacy, independence, and academic skills, which will help prepare the students for a smooth transition to college life.
