Why Camp America?

There’s a handful of organisations out there who claim to offer you the same summer camp experience that you’ll get with Camp America – but we’re here to tell you that this is simply not the case! We’ve been fine-tuning our programme for almost 40 years and strongly believe that we offer an unrivalled experience, on virtually every level. The decision is ultimately yours – but before you choose what’s right for you, please consider these important points.

  • J1 Visa

    Is the company a ‘designated visa sponsor’?
    Consider this:
    - Who is the 3rd party that’s sponsoring your visa? Are they reputable?
    - Do you have their contact details should anything go wrong with your visa?
    - Are there specific conditions attached to your visa that you need to follow to ensure you don’t break the visa conditions?
    With Camp America, you DON’T HAVE TO CONSIDER ANY OF THIS…
    We’re your visa sponsor and we’re designated as reputable by the US Government and we won’t ask you to check in with us or meet any inconvenient conditions

  • Medical Insurance

    Are you FULLY covered for any potential mishaps?
    Consider this:
    - Who is actually providing your medical care?
    - Are you covered for trips to the Emergency Room – even when you are not hospitalised?
    - Do you have to pay a hefty excess to make a medical claim?
    - Does the policy cover you when you’re travelling, after camp?
    With Camp America, you DON’T HAVE TO CONSIDER ANY OF THIS…
    Our medical insurance is specifically designed and it covers you for trips to the ER, even when you’re not hospitalised – with a fixed, affordable excess. Importantly, our policy covers you for up to 5 months, which should cover you for after camp travel.

  • Placement

    Do you have a realistic chance of a summer camp job?
    Consider this:
    - How many camps does your sponsor actually work with?
    - Are they open and honest with you about your application ?
    With Camp America, you DON’T HAVE TO CONSIDER ANY OF THIS…
    We are the original summer camp company and work with over 1000 different camps, we have a concrete network with camp directors – so you’re unlikely to be disappointed! We’re also open and honest with you about your application, skills and if we think you should improve your chances by getting qualified.

  • Customer Service

    Will anyone pick up the phone to you if you need help?
    Consider this:
    -
    Does your sponsor have an office based in Australia?
    - Do they have interviewers in every state of Australia, or do they want to interview you on Skype?
    - Do they have their own office in the US that has a 24 hour support line?
    - Are you being asked to contact someone’s mobile phone?
    - Are your emails being ignored?
    - If you can’t get through to the company now, how confident are you of getting hold of someone during the summer?
    With Camp America, you DON’T HAVE TO CONSIDER ANY OF THIS…
    Our customer service is unrivalled and we’re always by the phone, waiting to help, in Australia and the US. We’ve been doing this for 40 years and there’s nothing we haven’t dealt with – so if anything goes wrong then you’re in the very best hands and we’re always waiting by the telephone!
