Our Crowdfunding Groups
UC Berkeley’s Academic Talent Development Program (ATDP) offers challenging and intellectually stimulating summer courses to high achieving and hardworking students.
Since its inception in 2021, ATDP has awarded 25 full-ride Pathway Scholarships. In addition to participating in one of ATDP’s rigorous, high-quality courses, Pathway Scholars receive individualized support from an academic counselor and build community with their Pathway Scholars cohort. Pathway Scholars also learn new skills in weekly workshops that cover topics like time management, effective note taking, writing research papers, and more.
This last summer, the Pathway Scholars Program supported five students who were enrolled in a variety of courses, like Architecture, Robotics, Writing, or Clinical Psychology. At the culmination of the six-week program, Pathway Scholars shared their experiences in a research formatted presentation with their friends and family.
This year we hope to provide AT LEAST 10 more Pathway Scholarships!
“Working with the Pathway Scholars has been incredible. The students begin the program with gentle curiosity that develops into strong passion. It’s also fulfilling to see the community and friendships they create as a cohort.”
—Jackie Lopez, Pathway Scholar Counselor
