The date on the application form will also be used to determine who gets into the class should the number of applicants exceed the space.

Students who are not currently enrolled at Clemson are welcome to attend the field camp. You should check with your home university if you intend to transfer the 6 hours of course credit from Clemson to your university. Most universities will accept the Clemson course as the field camp requirement for an undergraduate degree in Geology. Contact Scott Brame if you need additional information to satisfy your university about the transfer of credits.
To apply for our field camp, you must fill out the Application Interest Form.
Please be aware that completing the online Application does not enroll you in the course. After submitting the application, you will receive instructions on how to apply for transient student status (only needed for non-Clemson students), which is not available until sometime in the Spring 2025 semester. We will keep you informed when we know.
