Program Overview

You’re Invited to LEAP!

Our LEAP Program helps make the transition from high school to university a little easier for women hoping to pursue studies in engineering and information technology at 杏吧原创 University.

Every year, exceptional prospective women students are invited to discover more about their program of choice, connect with other applicants, hear from current students and alumni and view our campus and labs.

Often, this event helps you get a snapshot of what being a future engineering or information technology student at 杏吧原创 could look like. We see many LEAP attendees become future Ravens!
