Between sessions of hands-on STEM fun, they’ll get the ultimate taste of collegiate life, from campus exploration and iconic architecture to meals in the dining halls and sweet dreams in the dorms.

Safety and supervision

As it has been for 23 years, the safety of our campers and staff is our #1 priority. This year, to welcome campers back to our locations around the country, we’re taking extra precautions and implementing preventive safety measures in light of COVID-19. Read more about our Peace-of-Mind Policies.

Additionally, all iD Tech summer staff members have undergone background checks and health and safety training. They will be on hand to lead evening activities and supervise campers. Overnight, our staff is housed in the same dorm building as the campers.

Roommates

At iD Tech, kids have the option to request a specific roommate upon registration. If no roommate is specified, we will make every effort to room each camper with another camper near their age. Boys and girls will typically be housed on separate floors or opposite wings of the dormitory.

I wanted to share my experience with ID Tech based on our recent adventure. In the months leading up to camp, we received emails requesting some information, which were straightforward. We also got email confirmations and check-in instructions, all of which were clear. My wife called to clarify a few details and found the staff helpful.

On check-in day, we arrived at the designated location and found clear signage directing us where to go. The instructors arrived ten minutes early and made an announcement to the group of about 25 overnight campers. Check-in was surprisingly quick and organized. We returned on Friday for pickup, where the camp held a graduation event for each class. Our sons had the chance to battle their robots against each other in three-minute rounds.

It was evident that all the kids, both overnight and day campers, were having a great time. They had positive feedback about the instructors, their peers, the food, and the classrooms. They appreciated the diversity among the 75 campers. They even exchanged contact information with a few new friends and expressed interest in returning, likely to explore a different subject, such as animation.

In conclusion, I hope this helps other parents considering this camp amidst negative feedback. Ultimately, my kids had a blast and want to go back, making it money well spent.

We sent our 17 year old son with his friend to stay on campus at the University of Michigan for a python coding class. Instead, my son and his friend became daycare providers. They are confined to the courts of West Quandrangle when not in class. There were only two counselors to watch all the kids and many children in the 7 year old range. Therefore, they spent their time at UofM playing tag with the children. We pulled them out the first full day of class after learning that they played Roblox. I called for a refund or to prorate at the least. I was informed I would hear a response in 24-48 hours. They must be busy playing tag because I haven't heard a response from them and it's been over a week. This is a camp that contracts the facilities and people. $1700 down the toilet.

I REALLY wished I would of done a bit of researched and checked out some online reviews. I was trying to do a special thing for my child and enrolled them in a summer, in person week long summer camp. (By the way, these camps are VERY expensive.) They cancelled the camp, and enrolled them in an online class they has absolutely no interest in. Now they refuse to give us back the $290 registration fee. The emails I am getting from this place are unbelievable ... actually saying they "are not cold hearted" and will not return my deposit. I've been going back and forth with my credit card company for months now. If you actually look at their return policy it states if they can't find a comparable class you will get a full refund. Their replacement of an online camp in a subject/area my child has no interest in is not a replacement. I wish I would of known all the customer service problems they have. Reading some of the other reviews about the online camps, a lot of people are really disappointed with those too. Also look at their social media - Twitter and Facebook posts. They quickly remove any negative comments or feedback that anybody posts on their company, or their policies. I posted a couple comments and they are quickly removed!
