What am I looking for?

Strategy: University


What am I looking for?

"Colgate's own entrepreneurship program is distinctive in the extraordinary

level of mentoring from our alumni and parents. Thought Into Action seems

like a natural next step for a student in your program."

Are the IA students a good fit for your university?


"Absolutely. The focus on interdisciplinary work, experiential learning, and internships are all

academic opportunities that they will encounter here at CU Boulder."



"Absolutely. Lots of talk of social entrepreneurship

and innovation."



WHYAre the IA students a good fit for your university?

"Based on the interdisciplinary and project-based nature of the programs presented, it

seems likely that Innovation Academy students will be inspired by Drexel

University's commitment to research, innovation, entrepreneurship and hands-on experience through the Drexel Co-op,

one of the most respected cooperative education programs in the United States."


WHY

"Absolutely. We value an entrepreneurial spirit and foster it here. We value students thinking outside the norm and who can appreciate a diverse, challenging or fast-paced

environment."



WHY

"Considering KU's mission of lifting students and society by educating leaders, building

healthy communities, and making discoveries that change the world, the students from the Innovation Academy seem to be a strong fit

for our institution. Particularly for scholarships, we look for students who

will become leaders on our campus."



WHY

"Yes, because we have very similar ideas of interdisciplinary and hands-

on learning, our goal is to cultivate students who are 'engaged minds,

inspired leaders, and global citizens.’ "
