The 2026 Youth Summer Camp Season Has Begun!

Thank you for your continued interest in Youth Programs and Summer Camps at North Carolina Central University!

We are excited to announce that the 2026 Summer Camp season is officially underway, and we are thrilled to welcome campers to campus for another exciting and enriching summer experience.

NCCU’s Youth Programs and Summer Camps provide meaningful opportunities for young learners to explore new interests, strengthen valuable skills, and experience the vibrant Eagle community. Our programs are designed to inspire creativity, leadership, academic growth, and personal development in a fun and engaging environment.

We are proud to welcome both new and returning campers for Summer 2026 and are excited to see our campus filled with learning, energy, and unforgettable memories. Our staff and camp partners have worked hard to prepare a dynamic lineup of programs that offer enriching experiences for all participants.

Registration is now officially open, and camps are already getting underway! We encourage families to review available program offerings and register early, as space may be limited for select camps.

Thank you for your continued support of NCCU Youth Programs. We look forward to an incredible summer with our young Eagles.
