“It’s not just the skills you’re learning, but it’s confidence; stuff you have to figure out yourself. People skills; you’re getting to know yourself better. You can’t really teach habits, and personal branding. But the way UnCollege set it up, you’re guiding us to teach ourselves.”
Operations Coordinator, Covo
“When you are at Uncollege you are confronted with your own potential, you are forced to embrace your otherness through travel, your dreams, your small ideas for innovation and are given time to hone in on what exactly that means for yourself and the others around you.”

“The thing standing between you and whatever it is you want is the risk or jump that you need to take. UnCollege facilitates that.”

“For some people, school isn’t even in the question—they find learning just through experiences. For me, I feel like I can learn what I learn in school, but experiences like this have taught me as much if not more, just about life in general. It isn’t necessarily a book-smart kind of learning, but more like a worldview of learning.”
Freshman, University of Pennsylvania
