Adding the College Park Scholars Boilerplate
What is boilerplate? Boilerplate is descriptive language that can help you speak consistently about College Park Scholars. Use this description whenever you need to provide a brief overview of Scholars.
- College Park Scholars, a two-year living-learning program at the University of Maryland, was established 30 years ago to enhance the collegiate experience of academically talented first- and second-year students. Students in this invitation-only program typically live with one another in the residence halls and take one or two classes as a group each semester. Home to 13 programs, College Park Scholars is designed to create meaningful undergraduate learning experiences that sharpen skills in critical thinking and problem solving while encouraging students to think across disciplinary lines, often by connecting what they learn in their individual program with the rest of their university courses. In Scholars, we believe we learn better when we learn together.
