A real college campus, truly at our fingertips.
At every stage, students enjoy access to the university’s arts & athletics resources, community facilities, future-focused innovation labs, and experiential learning programs - along with guidance and instruction from the college’s top educators, graduate students, and practicing professionals.
Personalized coaching for every learner.
We believe core academic fundamentals still matter as an interface for communication and critical thinking: that means reading, writing, and mathematical reasoning are more important than ever.
But instead of teachers, we utilize trained learning coaches, guides, and motivators to facilitate these focus sessions. This partnership, along with our adaptive, real-time tutoring platform, allows each student to advance at their pace, in their style, and with engaging content that mirrors their interests.
A launchpad for entrepreneurship & solving real problems.
Our Creator's Studio challenges students to identify and create real solutions to the world's most pressing everyday problems. Guided by faculty and mentors with on-the-ground experience, cohorts work collabortively with each other, as well as the broader NYC-area community, to produce long and short-term capstone projects with concrete impact.
Immersive Electives
Students enjoy several immersive enrichment electives that draw on the very best of Drew’s collegiate offerings. This includes: Foundational Arts (via Visual Arts Department), Stage and Story (via Theatre Department), History in Action (via History Department), and Experiential Science+ (via Biology, Chemistry, and Physics departments) This is a chance for students to dive deeper into the concepts they’re intrigued by in socratic, interactive workshops.

Our Adaptive, Personalized Tutoring Platform.
A game changing partner for our educators and learning coaches, 2 Hour Learning is an adaptive, personalized tutoring platform that allows each student to move through foundational content at their pace, in their style of choice — with clear data so educators and parents are always in the know on what’s working and what isn’t.

Each child is met where they are - academically, socially & creatively.
Most traditional schools are killing creativity in these uniquely inspired students who don’t run with the grain. Oftentimes, they’re told early on that they have to conform and comply. We’re not in that business. Drew’s looking to give these students the time, space, and mentorship to really zero in on what actually makes them tick.
