Mission Statement

Learning Unlimited was founded in 2007 by a group of alumni who had been involved with Splash at MIT and Stanford, and wanted to make educational opportunities more readily available for all students. With the mission of creating educational opportunities for high school and middle school students, and to provide leadership and teaching opportunities for college students’ Learning Unlimited strives to engage students of all ages in an educational setting to share and discover their passions. We accomplish our mission through our core values: choice, opportunity, accessibility, and autonomy.

Description

Learning Unlimited (LU) is leading a movement of college students teaching high school students everything and anything. By seeding and supporting self-sustaining student groups at colleges and universities around the world, LU reaches over 10,000 students annually.

LU’s flagship program is Splash. In one weekend, hundreds to thousands of high school and middle school students are invited to a college campus to learn about everything and anything from passionate university students. Splash often serves as a gateway to long-term programs run by the same students.

These programs are run by undergraduate or graduate student groups. Each is independent, mentored and supported by LU, with their own budget and leadership.
