Camp Tiger Summer Camp | K-12 University Center

Hosted at RIT, Camp Tiger summer camp caters to enthusiastic, hands-on learners in 3rd through 12th grade with programs centered on science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics, otherwise known as STEAM.

Camp Tiger is Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., with optional morning care (7:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m.), and evening care (3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.). We offer weeklong programs during a four-week period. Each week's programs align with what RIT does best -- inspiring the innovators and makers of tomorrow. Camp Tiger fees include project-based instruction and materials, family-style lunch at an RIT dining hall, supervised social interaction, and T-shirts to wear at camp. Camp scholarships and free camps are available on a limited basis for those in financial need.

Serving 645 youth in 2024, we are proud to be the largest and oldest summer camp program at RIT.

Testimonials

My camper has only been playing for two hours and already asked me to sign him up for the next D&D camp. He said this is the best camp he has ever done. The instructor is doing a great job. Thank you!

I'm actually an art student, but I joined Camp Tiger to get a fun summer job. I was assigned to a science camp and I'm honestly loving it!

My daughter is having a great time in virtual D&D. I haven’t seen her this excited and having this much fun in quite some time. Like many teenagers, she really missed school, and seeing her friends and peers.

Camp Tiger

I was so grateful for how the counselors at Camp Tiger dealt with my daughter's quirks. She's on the autism spectrum, and social situations are hard for her. At RIT Camp Tiger, she felt accepted and appreciated. It was a terrific experience for her. My daughter really connected with the counselors for D&D camp.

Camp Tiger

Educational topics in science, technology, math, etc. were amazing, with the best camp lunch in the county! Having lunch included is a big plus even if parents have to pay more. Giving tours of campus is also a great idea.
