The Tulsa Mathematics Equity Academy (TMEA) has been held at The University of Tulsa for the past 7 summers. The TMEA started as an outgrowth of our popular Sonia Kovalevsky High School Mathematics Days. Over the past seven summers the directors of the program have tried several formats and different content. This paper will summarize our experience with a view toward offering tips on how to start a residential summer academy. The TMEA is a residential academy for rising 8 and 9 grade girls. No academic credit is given. Our academy is funded by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education through a competitive proposal process. For residential academies, a maximum of $525 per student per week can be obtained.
