Hofstra Summer Camps uses a Camp Finder tool that allows families to filter options by grade and activity type. The program offers classic day camps, sports-focused camps, technology and game-building camps, precollegiate and career-focused camps, outdoor and travel camps, and arts-focused camps. A June Tour Day is available with RSVP, and families can also access a virtual campus tour.
