Eight prospective students were on campus (and the surrounding areas) last week as part of the APU Summer Trip. Over the course of the week the students met with the Admissions team, toured campus, went whitewater rafting on the Matanuska River, trekked on the Matanuska Glacier, camped on the Kellogg Campus, hiked in Hatcher Pass, toured the Seward Sealife Center and more. Get a sneak peak of their week below.
