"I was a little apprehensive while registering to the AUS summer camp; for I didn't know how it was going to be especially it will be virtual. It was a thrilling experience, even though, my laptop was a Mac system, so I had trouble accessing some of the applications. but, thankfully the organizers replied to me rapidly; whenever I had trouble or a question (in general). The staffs that organized the camp were teachers and mentors from AUS were the best! They were all patient with us and the level of the program was somehow meeting the levels of everyone attending, from the beginners to the advanced students. There is no way, to not have new information in every lesson. That's what I liked about it! Looking back at the camp, I will say that this camp was the highlight of my vacation. I would like to thank every teacher and organizer that made this a major success yet so much fun!"

"In 6 days, I learned that when you are confident and when you know what tools to use, then you will win the game of school and of life. At AUS summer camp I learned I can achieve any goal I have. The best part of the whole experience was the home IO on which I proved to myself I can do anything I put my mind to. I have learned many lessons that will serve me well over the course of my lifetime. This summer it was accepting myself and becoming more confident. Before these past two summers. Today. I have grown as a person trusting my ability to accomplish goals, problem solve, and look deeper than the surface into situations and relationships. I feel more prepared to accept and meet challenges in life, rather than giving up or worse, not even trying. I realize if I am willing to face my fears I will have the confidence to succeed in life with whatever I do."

"The AUS Computing Camp has been such an amazing experience. Initially, I thought that COVID-19 will not allow me to make the best use of my holidays but this camp proved the opposite. The Camp helped me understand the depths of various technological fields. Being passionate about computer science, I had the opportunity to improve my skills and learn new ones too. From Machine learning, app development to even building a basic computer utilizing cutting-edge technology like Thunkable, Cisco Packet Tracer and Minetest. I was immediately intrigued with the content being taught and the out pour of knowledge by the instructors. These 6 days have been highly informative and I don’t think I would ever be able to get another chance like this and I highly recommend any student whether you have or have not had any experience with Computer Science to take up the opportunity because this can be a very educational experience. I would like to take this opportunity to thank AUS and the instructors for this opportunity!"
