About Program

Before and beyond college, Baret Scholars explore 7 regions of the world, their passions, and their purpose. This will be their best year yet. The 4 elements of Baret Scholars are crafted to offer a sense of structure within a realm of freedom.

1. The Morning Program
In every region, we bring expert speakers, thinkers, artists, and leaders to inspire a nuanced understanding of the world they’re exploring and the lives they’re planning: like a traveling TED.

2. Independent Exploration
Students choose how to spend afternoons, evenings, and their long weekends. Nothing is forced - but everything is on the table.

3. Advising Program
Traveling with the 180 Baret Scholars are 15 full-time advisors who come from all corners of the globe and are experts in all corners of life.

4. Fellowships - 105 to Choose From
In each region, students choose how they spend their last 10 days. A panoply of opportunities are given to them, all educationally themed and led by Fellows.
