Students need more

We partnered with the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB, Ranked #8 in US) to deliver valuable experiences to high school students where they receive college credit, a certificate, and a recommendation letter.  

We work with schools, camps, and organizations to integrate and augment their existing curriculum.
