Additionally, students will have the opportunity to learn more about MSU and the Starkville campus.

The cost includes four days of programming with MSU faculty, daily food vouchers and parking passes, transportation to and from site visits (if outside Starkville city limits), one afternoon/evening social event and a swag bag.

Requirements:

• Must be at least 18 years old to apply.
