C.I.T.s play a vital role in carrying out the spirit and traditions of DASAC.
C.I.T.s are campers. They are campers who spend a portion of their day in the role of regular camper and a portion of their day assisting counselors and learning the art of DASAC Counselling.
C.I.T.s must be at least 16 years of age.
Priority is given to C.I.T. applicants who have been DASAC campers in the past, but acceptance in the program is not exclusive.
On occasion one holds C.I.T. status for more than one year.
If an applicant is not accepted into the C.I.T. program, the applicant may still attend DASAC as a regular camper, and is strongly encouraged to do so.
C.I.T.s are required to attend DASAC for both sessions.
C.I.T.s earn a $100 reduction from the camper tuition fee for each session, bringing their tuition to $600 per session, for a total of $1200 for the summer.
C.I.T. applicants are required to pay the $100 registration fee, to be subtracted from amount of tuition due.
C.I.T. applicants who are not accepted will be part of the lottery registration pool. If an applicant is not accepted into C.I.T. program and does not wish to enroll as a regular camper, then the $100 registration fee will be refunded.
C.I.T. slots are selective and limited. Previous enrollment in the C.I.T. program does not mean automatic admittance to the C.I.T. program the following season. The application process is essential.
Previous enrollment in C.I.T. program does not mean automatic graduation into Junior Counselor positions. Counselor positions are very limited.

To apply for the C.I.T. program, please fill out the regular DASAC registration form and attach it to this form. Send it in by the February 15, 12 noon registration deadline, with your letter of intent.*
