Why SEGL?

THINK ONE HIGH SCHOOLER CAN CHANGE THE WORLD?

Us too.

SEGL is a study-away program for high school juniors and seniors.

Our mission is to provide intellectually motivated high school juniors (and the occasional senior) who represent the diversity of the United States with the best possible opportunity to shape themselves into ethical leaders who create positive change in our world.

Our students come from across the country and globe. They have beliefs spanning left, right, and center. They are tomorrow's politicians and poets, physicians and physicists.

They all belong at SEGL, and so do you.
