Dear Parents,<\/p>\n

President Qubein reminded HPU\u2019s 2017 graduates this past weekend that average is out and excellence is in (see highlights from his senior sendoff speech here<\/a>). Wolf Blitzer, CNN\u2019s lead political anchor, also inspired students with his challenge to show up, work hard and be curious\u00a0(see highlights here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

As our graduates begin careers and enter graduate programs, HPU undergraduates begin internships, study abroad<\/a>, undergraduate research, and other experiential learning opportunities.<\/p>\n

The Class of 2017<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Our largest graduating class leaves their campus eager to make the world a better place.\u00a0Below, you\u2019ll appreciate merely a few examples of our graduates entering esteemed graduate school programs or beginning employment with impressive organizations.\u00a0These graduates<\/a><\/u>, like so many of their peers, are establishing their own pathways toward a life of both success and significance.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Current Students<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Internships are an essential career-building experience for HPU students. Many are already working as interns at companies including Amazon, The Walt Disney Company, the NBA, Goldman Sachs, Chick-Fil-A Corporation, The Madison Square Garden Company, Ashley Furniture, Angen, Gartner and many more.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The\u00a0Class of 2021<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In August, we will welcome an energetic and talented freshman class eager to experience our values-based learning environment. As summer arrives, many high school juniors and seniors begin to visit colleges. Please encourage your friends and family members who are seeking a transformational college experience to visit High Point University. Campus visits may be scheduled\u00a0here<\/a><\/u>. Parent advocacy plays an essential role in the continued development of our institution that has transformed lives since its founding in 1924.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thank you for your continued support and partnership.<\/p>\n
