Learn with people who love what they do
Pre-College Program instructors are successful entrepreneurs, visionary artists, ingenious engineers, inspiring activists, and more. Past staff have included Pulitzer Prize winners, state Supreme Court justices, founders of social impact organizations, award-winning researchers, and New York Times best-selling authors. Imagine what you can accomplish together.
I don’t think there could’ve been a better faculty and staff. They kept it professional, yet still made it incredibly fun and interesting and just really approachable. I didn’t feel intimidated and they felt more like friends, which I just loved because it made learning so much more enjoyable than it already was.
