The Hope Forward Program spans from orientation to graduation and provides supplemental learning opportunities focused on three pillars: community, access and generosity.
About the Program
Anchored in Hope鈥檚 mission to educate students for lives of leadership and service, the Hope Forward program equips graduates to:
- Be lifelong learners active in their communities
- Engage with areas of hopelessness out of a personal hope and abundance
- Give generously to create positive impact locally, globally and at 换妻社区
Some highlights of the Hope Forward Program include:
- Dinners with the president
- Off-campus retreats
- The development of a personal portfolio
- Supplemental advising/mentorship
- Service-learning experiences
- Seminars and banquets
- Book studies
And, active participation in campus-wide traditions like One Big Weekend, Time to Serve and Day of Giving.
To learn more about the program, including how to apply, we encourage you to speak with an Admissions representative or visit the Hope Forward Admissions website. There you will find information about the application process and timelines.
鈥淎 beautiful part of the Hope Forward program is that students like me have entered a lifelong community. The Hope Forward vision does not want my own relationship with the community to end on the day I graduate from 换妻社区.鈥

Our students are vocal about their desire to succeed and give back so they can bring
hope to the world. Rather than focusing on what a career can offer them, students
are asking, 鈥淲hat can I give to make the world better?鈥
鈥淚 am given Hope Forward as a gift to think of myself less, both financially and mentally, as I steward my education well so that I can pour back into others who would continue to do the same. I go to college with an assurance that I am covered along with a glad responsibility to give back by passionately pursuing my dream to be a doctor who cares for his patients as much as he cares for the sciences.鈥
