The program will include three days of activities, from Wednesday, August 20 to Friday, August 22, and is designed to foster a sense of community and build traditions among its participants. Activities will begin on Wednesday, August 20, in the afternoon and conclude by the George Mason University Convocation on Friday, August 22.

What happens when the 150 slots are filled?

Do I need to live on campus?

I want to live on campus and attend the program. What should I do?
Students are encouraged to apply to live in the Business and Entrepreneurship Residential Learning Community (RLC). This is a year-long program that does not require additional fees beyond prescribed housing and residential fees. Click here to apply or learn more.
Will I be able to move in early?
Yes, students who attend Camp Costello will be able to move in a day early, on Wednesday, August 20. We will work with students living on campus to help coordinate their move-in schedules and required support.
