About This Program

The Pioneer Prep Leadership Institute brings together rising high school juniors and seniors from across the country for a transformative experience that: enriches participants' cultural awareness, empowers emerging leaders, and guides scholars through the college admission process. It is a core component of the University of Denver's commitment to diversity and inclusiveness, centering the needs of the Black/African-American and Latinx communities as they relate to higher education. There is no racial or ethnic prerequisite to participate in the program. All are welcome to apply!
