                                 We believe that education is an
                                 adventure. We know that the pathway
                                 to achieving excellence goes beyond
                                 the classroom—it’s a journey
                                 of exploration.

                                 Exploration is about doing research
                                 that inspires you, getting real-world
                                 job experience, building lifelong
                                 friendships in a new city, and trying
                                 new things in your day-to-day life.

                                 Exploration is about using your curious
                                 mind to discover and understand a
                                 subject inside and out. It means asking
                                 tough questions and actively seeking
                                 the answers, and knowing your area
                                 of expertise through and through.
                                 Exploration is also about you and your
                                 life experience. We want you to explore
                                 your skills and talents … and discover
                                 new ones that you never knew you had!
