WE MAKE THREE

GUARANTEES

Degrees don’t land jobs — skills do. Our internship guarantee ensures students experience the workplace and begin building their professional network long before graduation. Through our guaranteed study abroad program, Junior Journey, students participate in domestic and international travel-study experiences that increase their cultural awareness and prepare them to be global thinkers and leaders. Our service learning initiatives teach civic responsibility and encourage students to engage with their communities to make a difference. We promise that they will leave in four years equipped with the skills employers seek.
