Summer Programs?
hello good people of advicenators! :)
For quite some time now, i've been wanting to do a summer program at a college; for arts (drawing/painting/learning to draw things- that kind of art). Thing is, i can't find a college program anywhere-and i'm not quite sure what to look for online,or anywhere for that matter.I know i want to take a summer course- but the thing is-i'll be a junior in highschool after this summer. What i'm mainly wondering is-
Can a junior in highschool even take classes at a college?
Also,What is an "Undergraduate" Program? Would this have to do with being in highschol and wanting to take a course?
Lastly- How am I to find a program in the summer for arts to begin with? I really want to do this- if it helps any I live in Massachusetts.For those of you who live here, do you know of any in this state?
So many questions! Well,thank you all for your time. =]

I have really no knowledge of art programs in the summer, so that part I will have to leave to someone else.
However, yes, a junior can take classes at a college. It's called Dual-Enrollment, at least in Michigan, and you'll have to talk to your counselors/principal in order to get the details worked out. Usually they will make you do the research on the class you want, and the school may pay for it. I know my school does.
An "undergraduate program" is the program that someone does in their "undergraduate" years of college, which are the first four, or two, depending on the program.
Undergraduate programs include, but are not limited to:
Pre-Med
Pre-Vet
Pre-Law
Pre-Dental
After your undergraduate program, you start your graduate program, which is like Med School or Law School or Vet School, etc.
It doesn't have to do with being in high school and wanting to take a course, unless you actually get college credits for your class. Because, then they can apply to your undergraduate credits needed to graduate.
So when/if you choose a class that you'll get college credit for, make sure the colleges you want to go to will accept that credit.
