UMBC’s STRiVE program has inspired hundreds of undergraduate students in the past 16 years. Now it's your turn. Spend five days building community and developing skills while exploring leadership for public purpose. You will emerge with greater clarity and confidence about the contributions you want to make to your communities, especially the UMBC community.
This year’s STRiVE program will take place from Monday, January 13 – Friday, January 17, 2025. STRiVE participants will make new friends, discover their strengths and values, learn how to work more effectively in groups, envision contributions they could make at UMBC, and tackle both simulated and real leadership and social change challenges. Past STRiVE participants have gotten deeply involved in campus organizations and initiatives, and have made phenomenal contributions.
Learn more about STRiVE 2025 and access the application. The application is due by Friday, November 8, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. EST.
The Center for Democracy and Civic Life hosts STRiVE in partnership with the Student Government Association with support from PNC Bank. If you have questions about STRiVE, contact Tess McRae at tessmcrae@umbc.edu.
The application for the Center for Democracy and Civic Life’s other immersive program, Alternative Spring Break (ASB), also is open now (due December 20).
