Program Preferences

We work with hundreds of Camps across the US, that are all totally unique! For a full run down of the types of Camps we work with, check out our Camp Types page linked here.

We require all applicants to select a minimum of 4 types of Camps they would be interested in to ensure them the best chance of being placed. In the hiring portal, Camp Directors will filter their search for staff by the types of Camps they are interested in. So simply put, if their Camp type does not appear in your application, then you cannot be seen by them. This means the fewer Camp types you are interested in, the fewer hiring opportunities you have.

Yes, you can contact AmeriCamp to change your preferences at any time before being placed. 

You can list a general estimation of your availability dates, and contact AmeriCamp to change these later down the line once you know for sure when you will be available. Please note that at a minimum applicants must be available before June 18th and up to August 15th. 

If you are available all summer the broadest availability dates you can list would be from the start of May to the end of September.
