UCLA offers virtually unlimited opportunities for inquiry, discovery, and education -- and yet is a close community that provides a real sense of belonging. The campus is home to world-renowned faculty who teach in 216 undergraduate and graduate majors, with more than two dozen of these academic programs ranked among the top 20 in their disciplines. The faculty provide more than 5,000 courses annually, with two-thirds of undergraduate classes having fewer than 30 students. The undergraduate experience can begin with a year-long Freshman Cluster Course, a stimulating team-taught exploration of one of 10 challenging interdisciplinary topics. In addition, 200 Fiat Lux Seminars -- where freshmen have priority enrollment -- are taught by senior faculty in small-group settings of approximately 20 students. Undergraduates also conduct research as early as their freshman year, with more than half of UCLA students graduating with research experience in the humanities, social sciences, and STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) disciplines. Outside the classroom, UCLA offers more than 1,000 student organizations providing students with ample opportunity to explore their interests, express their opinions, and have their voices heard. Community service is a cornerstone of undergraduate education at UCLA. Students can connect with opportunities through programs at the Volunteer Center, through more than 220 student groups engaged in community service, or on Volunteer Day, which brings together 8,000 UCLA volunteers annually. UCLA also encourages students to study abroad -- more than 2,000 do so each year -- with more than 392 programs in 43 countries. UCLA is home to leading research centers and institutes, top performing arts programs, an elite Division I athletics program, and the preeminent hospital in the Western United States. No other university can match such a diverse mix of academic excellence and life experience. UCLA is the place where students can believe there are no barriers -- and learn how to prove it. |

The University of Chicago is universally recognized for its devotion to open and rigorous inquiry. The strength of our intellectual traditions, intense critical analysis, and free and lively debate draws from our engaged scholars who continually seek creative solutions to complex problems. Our College graduates have made discoveries in every field of academic study; they are ambitious thinkers who are unafraid to take on the most pressing questions of our time. Their accomplishments have established the Universitys legacy as one of the worlds finest academic institutions. The University of Chicago is affiliated with 89 Nobel Prize winners, over 260 Guggenheim Fellows, 32 MacArthur "Genius Grant" Fellows, and 24 Pulitzer Prize winners. UChicago is also renowned for the unparalleled resources it provides its undergraduate students. Our 217-acre campus contains six libraries with over 11 million print volumes; over 150 research centers and institutes, including the new Institute for Molecular Engineering and the Institute of Politics; world-class theaters, museums, and art centers; and three of the nations top professional schools in law, business, and medicine. Rooted in Hyde Park, a neighborhood home to both our campus (certified as a botanical garden) and over 60 percent of the private homes of our faculty, UChicago offers a true campus-based community within the context of a major American city. Our students engage the city of Chicago and its many neighborhoods through groundbreaking research and scholarship, unparalleled internship opportunities, and a commitment to community service. Just as Chicago is a global city, the University of Chicago remains a truly international university: we offer over 45 faculty-led study abroad programs in over 20 countries, including those in conjunction with our centers in Beijing, Hong Kong, Delhi, and Paris. UChicago maintains a student-faculty ratio of 5:1, ensuring that every classroom experience exemplifies our commitment to close interactions between students and faculty in small, discussion-style seminars. Our famous Core curriculum - courses in eight subject areas that all students, regardless of their major, are required to take - provides students with a common vocabulary and a well-balanced academic experience, while allowing them the flexibility to explore their own particular interests within those eight subject areas. The Office of Career Advancement helps students translate what they are studying in our classrooms to their future careers. Career Advancement counsels students through individual meetings and larger pre-professional programs, the UChicago Careers In programs. There are eight different UChicago Careers In programs that cover sectors ranging from business and law to health professions and journalism, arts, and media. Additionally, Career Advancement connects students with over 1700 Metcalf internship opportunities - fully funded internships across a range of industries that are only available to UChicago students. Students also enjoy a highly successful Division III sports program; a small but active Greek life community; over thirty-five student theatrical productions a year; a rich music scene; and extraordinary opportunities in politics, music, theater, commerce, and neighborhood life in the city of Chicago. The Universitys Financial Aid program is extraordinary thanks to the new No Barriers program. No Barriers is a comprehensive plan to increase access to college, support students as they receive an empowering education, and prepare them for lifelong professional success.

Northwestern University offers a wide range of academic choices, extensive undergraduate research opportunities and a beautiful campus located on the shore of Lake Michigan just outside of Chicago. With more than 4,000 courses and 190-plus majors, minors, certificates and concentrations, anyone can plot their own unique Northwestern direction. Northwestern's six undergraduate schools offer choices in arts and sciences, communication, education and social policy, engineering and applied science, journalism and integrated marketing communications, and music. In addition, Northwestern students can choose from more than 130 study abroad programs in 50 countries. Northwestern's 8,400 undergraduates are collaborative, innovative, committed to success and to service -- and friendly. Northwestern is a place where students are not limited or confined to a specific academic discipline, but instead are free to explore their options and create their own path. Northwestern's 1,200 full-time faculty members include recipients of the Pulitzer Prize, Tony Award, and MacArthur "genius" grant, as well as other awards and honors. In 2016, Board of Trustees Professor of Chemistry Sir Fraser Stoddart was awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry "for the design and synthesis of molecular machines." In the faculty ranks are members of the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and other honorary and professional societies. But they are also dedicated teachers, with many of the top scholars and researchers working side-by-side with undergraduate students. With 77 percent of classes having fewer than 20 students, and Northwestern's low 7:1 student-faculty ratio, undergraduate students have numerous opportunities to collaborate with faculty in research, as well as receive career advice and assistance from faculty mentors. Northwestern offers a variety of financial aid options to make a Northwestern education accessible to all. From scholarships to work-study programs, the University works with each individual student and family to provide the necessary resources, and approximately 60 percent of undergraduate students receive financial assistance. Northwestern provides generous need-based scholarships and grants, including a No-Loan Scholarship program, which means that qualified students can graduate debt-free. And with 95 percent of Northwestern graduates employed or continuing their education full-time within six months of graduation, a Northwestern degree is an extraordinarily valuable asset in the employment marketplace. Northwestern is a founding member of, and the only private university in, the powerful Big Ten Conference. As a result, Northwestern students get to see some of the best college football, basketball, lacrosse, soccer and other sports. In 2017, the men's basketball team was the Cinderella story of the NCAA Tournament, receiving its first-ever bid and powering through to the second round. A newly expanded recreation center and a new state-of-the-art sailing center on Northwestern's private beach located on campus provide outstanding fitness and recreational facilities for all students. Northwestern is located in Evanston, a quintessential college town, with hundreds of restaurants, cafes and shops a few blocks from the campus. With Chicago next door and free campus shuttle buses going to Northwestern's downtown campus, students can easily take advantage of the music, theatre, museums, sports, and entertainment of a world-class city to enrich their undergraduate experience. In addition, Northwestern's location means that students can participate in internships, field studies and research opportunities at major corporations and nonprofit organizations in Chicago. |

The essence of MIT is our appetite for problems--especially those big, intractable, complicated problems whose solutions make a permanent difference. While MIT is a research university committed to world-class inquiry in math, science, and engineering, MIT has equally distinguished programs in architecture, the humanities, management, and the social sciences. A diverse, supportive campus environment--with an incredible range of student groups and athletic and fitness opportunities--ensures that it's not all about the work. And in MIT's intensely creative atmosphere, the arts flourish in all their forms.MIT admits some of the most talented students in the world on a need-blind basis. The Institute is committed to meeting the financial need of each admitted undergraduate student through MIT scholarships; the average need-based scholarship was $38,871 per year in 2016. As a result, the MIT community is incredibly diverse, and organically collaborative, with students coming from many different backgrounds, across the country and around the world.Students are frequently encouraged to unite MIT's engineering excellence with public service. For example, the required senior capstone design course for mechanical engineering majors centers on making the world a better place through engineering. Recent years have focused on projects using alternative forms of energy, and machines that could be used for sustainable agriculture. Beyond academic coursework, MIT's D-Lab, Poverty Action Lab, and Public Service Center all support students and professors in the research and implementation of culturally sensitive and environmentally responsible technologies and programs that alleviate poverty and improve quality of life in low-income areas locally, nationally, and worldwide.MIT's preeminence in entrepreneurship is rooted in its founding. As one of the first land-grant colleges, the Institute was designed to deliver a practical education rather than to focus on the classical education that was provided by many private universities of that era. This emphasis on practice is infused into the entrepreneurship curriculum and programming, which emphasizes learning by doing. Over the course of the 2015-2016 academic year, more than 60 entrepreneurship courses were offered.Several MIT departments, labs, and centers foster entrepreneurship and innovation at MIT including the Martin Trust Center for MIT Entrepreneurship, the MIT Sandbox Innovation Fund Program, and the MIT Innovation Initiative to name a few. MIT also has over 40 student clubs and initiatives involved in entrepreneurship or innovation, among them the MIT $100K Entrepreneurship Competition, MIT Clean Energy Prize, and conferences such as Hacking Arts and Hacking Medicine.The MIT community brings its energy and creativity outside the classroom as well with 500+ student-run groups, 33 varsity sports, 18 intramural sports, 33 club sports, and more than 60 music, theater, visual arts, writing, and dance groups. It's just a short walk across the Charles River to Boston where students can enjoy the city's fabulous restaurants or take in Boston culture. Many programs around MIT allow students to get reduced-price tickets to various events, including the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the American Repertory Theater, and Bruins, Celtics, and Red Sox games. Students get free admission daily to the Museum of Science, the Museum of Fine Arts, and all Harvard University and MIT museums. |

The world we live in is not easily segmented by academic disciplines. Problems in the world will not fit into neatly labeled categories and solutions will not come from a single point of view. Global challenges like the European debt crisis or climate change are intertwined across economic, political, technological, linguistic, and cultural lines. Tufts educational philosophy recognizes this and adapts to it with requirements that push students towards interdisciplinary thought. Students are asked to understand global culture and to see the importance of context beyond any singular discipline. Tufts believes in using intellect to impact the world and in understanding how the world impacts our intellectual pursuits. It is not uncommon to find a computer scientist partnering with faculty in mechanical engineering and drama to program robots that can tell a good story or a religion major studying to become a doctor who understands of how faith, ethics, and health are linked. Tufts cross-disciplinary strength is possible because of its combination of intimate size and world-class research. Tufts mission to impact the world benefits from Boston, the premier higher education destination in the United States as well as the constellation of schools that defines the university: the School of Arts and Sciences, the School of Engineering, the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, the Graduate School of Engineering, the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy, the Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences, and the School of Medicine. |

Founded in 1769, Dartmouth is one of the oldest and most respected institutions of higher learning in the United States. A member of the Ivy League, Dartmouth has a long history of dedication to the highest educational ideals. With its world-class faculty and facilities, and nationally and internationally renowned graduate programs in engineering, business, medicine, and the arts & sciences, the school has resources that very few universities can match. In addition, by maintaining a highly flexible quarter-system calendar, and allowing only faculty to teach its undergraduate courses, Dartmouth assures that students have complete and timely access to all that the institution has to offer. Faculty: The professors at Dartmouth are among the leaders in their fields, yet they remain fully committed to teaching. Even the most senior professors teach first-year courses. Recipients of more than $191 million in annual research grants and consistently ranked among the most respected teachers in American higher education, Dartmouth professors are true exemplars of the phrase teacher-scholar. Through course-related discussions, research collaborations, and casual conversation, students get to know their professors as instructors, mentors, colleagues, and friends. Undergraduate Students: Dartmouth students come from all 50 states and over 80 countries. The population is divided almost evenly between men and women. Nearly half of the students identify themselves as students of color (39%) or international students (8%). More than half (52%) of the students receive some form of need-based financial assistance to cover the cost of their education. Dartmouth disburses more than $92 million in need-based aid each year. Prior to Dartmouth, 54% of the students attended public secondary schools and 42% attended private or parochial schools. Once on campus, they take full advantage of the academic resources Dartmouth has to offer, and get involved in the more than 300 officially recognized organizations. |

The University of Virginia offers the vast intellectual resources of a major research university, but fosters the intimacy, sense of community, and dedication to undergraduate life typically found at a small liberal arts college. While it is public, and welcomes women and men of every background, it also is highly selective and attracts students who seek challenges. Students' motivation to achieve is matched by a culture of mutual support, openness, civility, and above all, integrity and trust. With its balance -- between cutting-edge scholarship and first-rate teaching, between rigorous academics and rewarding activities -- U.Va. offers an undergraduate experience with few equals. |

A comprehensive university with a large undergraduate population, Virginia Tech is set apart from other universities not only by its long-standing excellence in science, technology, and engineering, but also its commitment to communities and service to society.Virginia Tech offers almost 200 degree programs among eight colleges. Students are prepared for the challenges of the future by working in interdisciplinary teams, engaging in critical and creative thinking, collaborating with diverse people, communicating effectively, and conducting oneself with a deep sense of ethics.

It embodies the university's emphasis on building character and leadership throughout the student body.Virginia Tech's Moss Arts Center presents renowned artists from around the world and from close to home, with a special focus on experiences that expand cultural awareness and deepen understanding. |

The University of Hawaii at Manoas special distinction is found in our Hawaiian, Asian, and Pacific orientation and our unique location in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The setting and the diversity of our students and faculty foster unique advantages in the study of Asian and Pacific cultures, foreign languages, tropical agriculture, tropical medicine, ocean and marine sciences, astronomy, volcanology, and international business.Our unique geographical, cultural, and historical heritage suggests that the University of Hawaii at Manoa values and the responsibilities inherent in embracing those values include the following:A focus on developing an awareness of and sensitivity to diversity and commonality. The Manoa campus is culturally rich and complex, providing a perfect social setting for frequent interactions with persons fromcultures other than ones own. At Manoa we incorporate and celebrate intercultural experiences and understanding into our social and educational environments in a comprehensive fashion. Manoa is also a place where historic political, economic and social conflicts between Native Hawaiian people, settlers and working immigrants have contributed to the diverse perspectives, beliefs, values and even conceptual frameworks of our islands people. Growing out of the core Hawaiian value of aloha, an essential component of the Manoa Experience, are insights that both bond us and simultaneously express the variations that collectively enrich us.A focus on global awareness and local responsibility. These values are consistent with a uniquely Hawaiian place of learning. Hawaii is a place where the strength of identity is important to Native Hawaiian peoplestruggling to maintain traditional connections while establishing new global relationships. Their struggle for cultural distinction forms a significant part of the story of human history and change. Hawaii is also a placewhere the peoples from Asia, Europe, and the Pacific regions gathered, formed communities, and built lives together. The pluri-cultural children of Hawaii are global citizens, a true pan-ethnic population. Hence, we attempt to infuse our pedagogical, social, and cultural environments with a global perspective and with questions and issues of global significance. Moreover, engaging and acting upon local questions and issues during theireducational experience at Manoa engenders in students a sense of responsibility toward future generations.A focus on sustainability and renewability. These values are also a reflection of our unique Hawaiian cultural history, as voiced in the Hawaiian core value of malama i ka aina, malama i ke kai (caring for the land and sea that sustain us). The Hawaiian culture teaches us to see Manoa as part of an ahupuaa extending from mountaintop to ocean, emphasizing an ecosystem understanding of our home. Hawaiis unique geographical status as the most isolated, populated land mass on the planet makes it incumbent upon us to develop research, technologies, economy, and a way of life based on sustainability and renewability, as Polynesians did over thousands of years of voyaging, discovery and settlement. Fostering a pedagogical, social, and cultural environment that reflects these values and the knowledge developed by Native Hawaiians over the millennia is central to our efforts. Cultivating, practicing, and communicating these values are our Universitys gifts and obligation to the rest of the world. |

Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, embodies the historical development of higher education in the United States. From its colonial inception as Queens College in 1766, the institution grew to become Rutgers College in 1825. In 1864 it was designated the states land-grant institution. Assuming university status in 1924, it was further transformed by legislative acts in 1945, and in 1956 the institution became Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. 1989 marked another historic milestone when the university became a member of the Association of American Universities (AAU), connoting its position as one of the major public comprehensive research universities in the U.S., and the only one of its kind in New Jersey. On July 1, 2013, the New Jersey Medical and Health Sciences Education Restructuring Act went into effect, integrating Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, with most units of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ). The integration of the legacy elements of UMDNJ into Rutgers has created a fourth unit, Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences (RBHS), which consists of a number of schools and units located on various sites but closely aligned with the campus in New Brunswick. Undergraduate students in New Brunswick enroll in the School of Arts and Sciences, the liberal arts college, and/or in one of the professional schools: School of Environmental and Biological Sciences (formerly Cook College); Mason Gross School of the Arts; Rutgers Business School: Undergraduate-New Brunswick; School of Communication and Information; School of Engineering; Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy; School of Management and Labor Relations; Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy; College of Nursing; School of Nursing; School of Health Related Professions. Each school within the New Brunswick campus has individual requirements, policies, and fees. Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey/Newark Campus, founded in 1908, is comprised of 5 undergraduate, degree-granting schools: Newark College of Arts and Sciences; University College-Newark; Rutgers Business School: Undergraduate-Newark; School of Criminal Justice; and School of Public Affairs and Administration. Each school has individual requirements, policies, and fees. Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey/Camden Campus, founded in 1927, is comprised of 4 undergraduate, degree-granting schools: College of the Arts and Sciences, University College--Camden, the School of Nursing-Camden and the School of Business--Camden. Each school has individual requirements, policies, and fees. |

A new era of excellence is dawning at Texas Tech University as it stands on the cusp of being one of the nation's premier research institutions. Research and enrollment numbers are at record levels, and the university recently received Highest Research Activity status from The Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Learning. Texas Tech's total research expenditures continue to rise. The largest student enrollments occurred in the last eight fall semesters, respectively. Numbers like that cement Texas Tech's commitment to attracting and retaining quality students. Quality students need a top-notch faculty. Texas Tech is home to a diverse, highly revered pool of educators. In 2013, ten faculty members were awarded grants from the Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program, the most in the university's 92-year history and the most in the U.S. that year. Through the Fulbright program, these educators are bestowed the opportunity to work side-by-side with researchers around the world promoting educational collaboration. Texas Tech also has four National Academy members on faculty at the Whitacre College of Engineering. This honor is considered one of the highest among professional engineers. One of the National Academy members was also appointed as the new holder of the Jack Maddox Distinguished Engineering Chair in Sustainable Energy. Texas Tech is constantly reaching necessary benchmarks to make it even more of a national presence in research. In May of 2012, the university met the criteria to receive a share of Texas National Research University Fund (NRUF). Inclusion to the fund moves Tech a step closer to attaining Tier One status. New research partnerships are creating unparalleled academic collaborations for the university to make strides in many areas.Since 1970, Texas Tech has been a trailblazer in wind science. The university created the National Wind Institute (NWI) to better support the interdisciplinary research and educational opportunities in wind science, engineering, and energy. The institute combines the former Wind Science and Engineering research center (WISE) and the Texas Wind Energy Institute. Texas Tech also houses newly commissioned turbines at the Department of Energy/Sandia Scaled Wind Farm Technology (SWIFT) Facility. The SWIFT facility is the only one of its kind in the world and gives the U.S. a significant advantage in the reduction of wind energy costs. Texas Tech has one of the largest petroleum engineering departments in the nation and, in 2014, opened the Terry Fuller Petroleum Engineering Research Building. The $20 million project houses 40,000-square feet of formal teaching environments with hands-on applications and modern research facilities. University researchers have developed innovative ways to stimulate natural gas and oil well production through hydraulic fracturing (fracking.) The Office of Technology Commercialization at Texas Tech has filed two patent applications to protect these methods and is actively working with oil and gas companies to begin using these improved rock fracturing techniques in the field. Texas Tech is a leader in community outreach and engagement. The university and the Lubbock Independent School District, along with multiple community partners, celebrated a $24 million Promise Neighborhood grant from the U.S. Department of Education. There are only seven Promise Neighborhood grantees across the nation, and East Lubbock Neighborhood consortium will receive funding over five years. |

The University of Oklahoma is truly an extraordinary institution, known for its academic excellence and strong sense of community. Attracting top students from across the nation and more than 120 countries around the world, OU provides a major university experience in a private college atmosphere. For the second time in three years, OU has enrolled more freshman National Merit Scholars than any other institution in the country - the only public university ever to have done so. The current student body is both the largest and most highly ranked academically in the history of public institutions in Oklahoma. In 2012, OU added its 29th Rhodes Scholar. No other university in Oklahoma has had more than two. OU is the only university in the nation whose students have won Rhodes, Marshall, Mitchell, Truman, Goldwater, and Fulbright scholarships in the same year. In 2016, the OU Honors College was named one of the top 25 programs at a public university, matching the University's best and brightest students with faculty in classrooms of 19 or fewer students. OU is one of the few public universities in the nation to cap the class size of first-year English composition courses at no more than 19. The University is at the top in the nation in international exchange agreements, allowing students to study in more than 79 countries and more than 220 cities on six continents around the world. OU is the only public university in the nation to be awarded the Davis Cup four consecutive years in recognition of its record-setting enrollment of United World College international freshmen. The number of endowed faculty positions has grown from fewer than 100 in 1994 to 578 today. In honor of OUs 125th anniversary, the University launched a $500 million private fundraising campaign, of which the largest component is to raise $100 million to provide scholarships and fellowships. During the past decade, research expenditures have more than doubled at OU, totaling more than $284 million in fiscal year 2014. In 2011, OU achieved the Carnegie Foundation's highest tier of research activity classification, making it the first time a public institution in Oklahoma has received this outstanding recognition. The Association of University Research Parks recently named OU's Research Campus the top research campus in the United States. Since 1995, more than $2 billion in construction projects have been completed or are underway on OUs three campuses - including a new school of biomedical engineering on the Norman main campus. OU is the only Big 12 university to be selected as having one of Americas 25 most beautiful campuses. The Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History is one of the two largest natural history museums in the world associated with a university, containing more than 10 million artifacts. The Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art has more than doubled in size with an additional 18,000 square feet added on to allow for additional collections. OUs Bizzell Memorial Library features the largest history of science collection in the world, and is the only place in the United States where you can hold a book with Galileo's handwriting in your own hands. Opening in fall 2017, OU is among the first public universities in the country to build residential colleges for upperclassmen and women, patterned on those at Yale, Harvard, and Oxford. These communities will become the cornerstone of the undergraduate experience. OU established the Faculty-In-Residence program, which places faculty members and their families in each of our residence halls to foster faculty and student interaction and encourage intergenerational friendships. Further, a different professor adopts each floor of the residence halls as well as each fraternity and sorority, allowing students and faculty to build relationships outside of the classroom. This facilitates the academic vitality on campus and has encouraged one in every four of our students to study abroad during their time at OU. |

Inspired by the intellectual audacity and educational ideals of our founder, Benjamin Franklin, the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) offers a compelling mixture of world-class liberal arts coursework and pre-professional education. Students apply to one of four undergraduate schools---Arts and Sciences, Nursing, Engineering and Applied Science, or Wharton. Penn also offers an array of exciting interdisciplinary programs and courses which leverage the resources of different departments or schools, such as the Fisher Program in Management and Technology, the Huntsman Program in International Studies and Business, and the Vagelos Program in Life Sciences and Management. Students are strongly encouraged to engage the world beyond Penn, both locally and globally. Civic House provides a "hub" for students interested in all kinds of community service while the Center for Community Partnerships coordinates over 150 Academically Based Community Service courses each term which link theory and practice through activities that make a significant difference in West Philadelphia and the City. Opportunities for global engagement include Penn Abroad, through which more than 600 Penn undergraduates each year spend a semester or longer abroad, more than any other Ivy League school. Nearly 15% of our undergraduates come to Penn from other countries, providing a linguistically and culturally diverse environment. As one of the worlds premier research universities, Penn offers students the opportunity to learn by participating in the hands-on creation of new knowledge. The Center for Undergraduate Research, the Kelly Writers House, the Weiss Tech House, and the Penn Museum are places that connect undergraduates to leading researchers at Penn and to the cutting-edge ideas of its laboratories and seminar rooms. The academic experience at Penn is integrated with social and extra-curricular life. Almost all first-year students reside within the eleven College Houses at Penn, which link intellectual and social experiences through close contact with faculty-in-residence and student resident assistants. Penn has over 300 student groups ranging from political action to performing arts to sports clubs to student publications offering all students opportunities to pursue a wide-range of interests. Such opportunities extend beyond campus to the City of Philadelphia where students can experience the rich cultural, athletic, social, and political life of Americas most historic city. Today Ben Franklin would marvel at the intellectual and social excitement of the diverse and dynamic institution he founded. |

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is the nation's oldest technological research university. Since its founding in 1824, Rensselaer has maintained its reputation for providing a transformative education of undisputed intellectual rigor based on innovation in the laboratory, classroom,and studio. The Institute's motto is: "Why not change the world?" Rensselaer offers more than 145 programs at the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels from five schools: Engineering;Science; Architecture; Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences; and the Lally School of Management; as well as an interdisciplinary degree in Information Technology and Web Science. Students are encouraged to work in interdisciplinary programs that allow them to combine scholarly work from several departments. The Institute provides engaging,interactive learning environments and campuswide opportunities for leadership, collaboration,and creativity. Driven by talented and forward-thinking faculty, Rensselaer has expanded its research enterprise by focusing on five signature research areas: biotechnology and the life sciences; energy, environment, and smart systems; computational science and engineering;nanotechnology and advanced materials; and media, arts, science, and technology. TheInstitute is well-known for its success in the transfer of technology from the laboratory to the marketplace so that new discoveries and inventions benefit human life, protect the environment, and strengthen economic development. Rensselaer is anchored by two vibrant roots. One root, written into the school's founding documents, is "...the application of science to the common purposes of life." Rensselaer graduates constructed the canals, roads,bridges, skyscrapers, and basic infrastructure of America, which helped to form the basis for 20th century society. The second root, also built into the school's origin, is the employment of novel educational strategies. In the earliest days, after initial instruction, students taught what they knew to each other since teaching reinforces learning. Likewise, students performed scientific experiments instead of watching faculty conduct them, as had been the common practice. Rensselaer is led by the Honorable Shirley Ann Jackson and guided by The Rensselaer Plan, under which the Institute has made major investments in people, programs,platforms, and partnerships that have transformed Rensselaer into a top-tier technological research university with global reach and global impact. The Rensselaer Plan was recently refreshed to provide the roadmap to the Institute's 200th anniversary in 2024. The updated plan addresses three critical areas: student life, innovative pedagogy, and research to solve global challenges. In the area of Student Life, CLASS (Clustered Learning, Advocacy, and Support for Students) provides support through a network of faculty, staff, and other students,as well as co-curricular opportunities for students throughout their undergraduate years. In the area of innovative pedagogy, the Institute has implemented The New Polytechnic, a new model for scientific and technological education that emphasizes collaboration across disciplines, using the latest, most advanced tools, technologies, and approaches to address the complex problems of the world. In the area of research, Rensselaer was the first university in the world to receive a Watson cognitive computing system from IBM. Watson, along with AMOS, one of the world's most powerful university-based supercomputers, is based in the Rensselaer Center for Computational Innovations. Rensselaer is also home to several other unique research facilities including the Center for Biotechnology and Interdisciplinary Studies,which houses over 400 researchers, and the Curtis R. Priem Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center, which provides a platform for exploration and learning at the nexus of research, technology, and the performing arts. |

There's something about the University of Oregon. Ducks live in an exceptional academic community surrounded by a city alive with music, culture, food, and art--you might call it Northwest of normal. Our home is populated by scientists, champions, explorers, builders, and storytellers: people who aren't afraid to try, fail, and try again, who work together to find a better way. With more than 310 academic programs to choose from, Ducks have a world of inquiry at their webbed feet. It's no accident that the College of Arts and Sciences is at the heart of the university. Every UO student graduates with a broad-based liberal arts and sciences degree, regardless of major. Ducks learn to question critically, solve problems, and communicate clearly--skills that 93% of employers say are more important than an employee's major. Looking for an intellectual challenge? The Robert D. Clark Honors College is the oldest of its kind in the United States. A comic studies program? The first and only in the country is here. If something more scientific appeals, the UO is at the nucleus of integrative science studies. The UO's School of Journalism and Communications, headed by Pulitzer Prize-winning authors and journalists, leads the way in the idea industry for studying brands, media, design, and creative culture. In the Lundquist College of Business, students manage real investments, launch real startups, and work on real problems for real companies. It's just one of the reasons amazing companies are interested in hiring UO students when they graduate. Ducks join First-Year Interest Groups that bring people together based on powerful ideas and provide opportunities to interact with and learn from each other. The UO is also deeply committed to research. Our faculty, graduate, and undergraduate researchers are asking good questions that take students to new and better places, including exploring ways to help people live more sustainably. Chemistry faculty found ways to teach chemistry that creates the least toxic waste possible. Then they taught green chemistry to the world. More than 23,000 students call the UO home, and it's a pretty great home. Eugene was voted one of the greenest and bike-friendliest cities in the U.S., one of the most livable cities, and one of the best college towns in the U.S. An hour from both the rugged Oregon coast and the Cascade mountain range, you can snowboard, or surf, or do both--in the same day. Everything here, even the geography, contribute to our inclusive environment of collaboration and innovation. Humans' insatiable need to explore, to experiment, to connect: that's what fuels everything at the University of Oregon. And that's what makes us Ducks. |

The University of Louisville is intent on becoming a premier metropolitan research university, known for academic excellence and improving the lives of the citizens of Louisville and Kentucky. UofL students are excelling in and out of the classroom, earning national and international academic acclaim while helping address pressing social, economic and educational issues in the community. Supported by an office created specifically to help them apply for and earn national and international teaching and research scholarships, University of Louisville students received 103 Fulbright scholarships between 2003 and 2016, ranking UofL among the top-producing universities in the nation. Since 2009, UofL students also have captured many other prestigious scholarships, including Rhodes, Truman and Goldwater awards. Among other efforts to help students succeed, UofL launched the Cardinal Covenant program - the first program of its kind in Kentucky - to help low-income families fund a college education. Students leave the program debt free and with a college education - ready to enter Kentucky's workforce. More than 300 students are currently in the program, and more than a third of those have a GPA of 3.0 or higher. Ranked among Americas top 12 "good neighbors" in a survey by the Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities, UofL emphasizes its Signature Partnership initiative, a program designed to enhance the quality of life and economic opportunity for individuals and families who live in Louisville's urban core. The goal is to work with various community partners to improve their educational, health, economic and social status. Working closely with community residents, the Jefferson County Public Schools, Louisville Metro Government, Metro United Way, the Urban League, faith-based organizations and many others, the university has coordinated and enhanced existing programs and launched new efforts designed to eliminate or reduce disparities in that area. UofL is drawing upon the expertise and energy of every school and college to deal with the quality of life issues affecting the community. UofL also serves as an economic engine for Louisville. An independent study showed that between 2003 and 2009 UofL-related investments resulted in the creation of 9,764 jobs - or about 40 percent of the new net jobs created in Kentucky during that time. UofL activities also added $1.7 billion to the commonwealths economic output. The university's strategy includes taking underperforming assets and finding ways to help them reach their economic potential. This tactic is important for the university's economic well-being in a period when Kentucky has cut funding to state universities 14 times in 14 years. A significant portion of UofL's Shelby Campus is being developed into the Shelbyhurst Office and Research Park. Two buildings are completed and occupied; a third is under construction. Revenue generated from ShelbyHurst will support UofL's academic and research missions. UofL also is developing property in downtown Louisville at its Health Sciences campus and has acquired property adjacent to its Belknap Campus. That property will be home to the Belknap Engineering and Applied Science Research Park. The park will include the Institute for Product Realization and Innovation, a collaboration between industry and UofL to quickly create innovative products and test them in the marketplace. While that development is in the planning stages, a development in downtown Louisville is under way. NUCLEUS, Kentucky's Life Science and Innovation Center, provides business management and consulting services to support entrepreneurs engaged in life sciences. When it is completed, the research complex will house multiple facilities in close proximity to expedite collaboration and shared expertise among researchers and companies. |
