The University of Central Florida has offered a summer competitive programming camp for high school students for over 10 years now. Multiple former students have gone onto attend the USACO Camp and one former student earned a gold medal in IOI. Several students later went onto attend the ICPC World Finals. The camp is supported by teaching assistants from the UCF Programming Team, which consistently performs well at the ICPC World Finals, earning a Bronze Medal in 2018. This year, we are proud to announce that our two instructors are Mr. Christian Lim (yongwoods), Columbia's ICPC Head Coach, and Mr. Arup Guha (wphsucf), one of UCF's team coaches.

Our target audience is US students who aim to do well in USACO who haven’t been chosen as finalists for the USACO summer training camp. In addition, we've had international students attend from Canada, Great Britain, Thailand, among others.

The camp runs from July 13, 2025 – July 25, 2025 and housing will be provided in dormitories on campus.

UCF’s programming team has performed well in the South East Regional over the last 30 years. The team has qualified for World Finals every year since 2004 except for 2011. Ironically, that was the year the contest was held in Orlando! Joining me as a camp instructor is Matt Fontaine, an ACM ICPC World Finalist for UCF from 2012. Matt has written rounds for TopCoder, questions for the South East Regional Programming Competition and the North American Invitational Programming Contest. In addition, other UCF team members and coaches will support the camp as well.

We hope that some of you will join us for our inaugural camp!
