Everyone learns differently. Information can be absorb in a multitude of ways: listening, watching, reading, writing, sketching, dramatizing…etc. We all have a preferred method of learning that allows us to most effectively upload and retain information. Unfortunately, after preschool in the United States, most schools only focus on read, write/type, and regurgitate. Our homogeneous approach to educating most students in this nation leads to less than favorable results for students who need a non-linear method of instruction.
When we were developing the New Prospect Academic Incubator, we placed major emphasis on creating a program that was:
1. Flexible – All of the accredited course work we offer to students through University of the People is delivered online. This enables students to complete coursework 24/7 via any web connected device. Additionally, the Academic Incubator provides a physical facility and support services to ensure that students receive individualized help and guidance. Each member of the Incubator Team will know each student on a professional, academic, and personal level. We will holistically care for our students, and our top priorities will be their success and well-being.
2. Student-Centric Approach – The Academic Incubator is perpetually seeking feedback from students. We value students’ opinions, and through our daily dialog, we will be able collaborate on many important decisions. Furthermore, we will have daily academic check-ins with each student and weekly check-ins with the students’ professors and employers. Our goal is to provide continual support to each student, while acting as a conduit between students and professors/students and employers. Students will sign a learning agreement upon joining the Academic Incubator stating that they are willing to receive help immediately if academic, employment, or home life issues arise. Pro-activity, resourcefulness, and authentic care will be the strongest traits of our Academic Incubator.
3. Translatable – University of the People offers four accredited degree programs. The Academic Incubator then helps students apply what they are studying via internships, professional workshops, industry networking events, and interacting with guest speakers who will visit the Incubator on a regular basis. Our students will have the opportunity to receive a world class education from University of the People, and the chance to immediately translate that education into real world experience through the resources provided by the Academic Incubator.
Our program couples the flexibility of studying online with the benefits of a caring local support team devoted to student success! The Academic Incubator looks to assist students above and beyond the support offered by most traditional “bricks and mortar” colleges and universities. You are never on your own in our program!

New Prospect Academic Incubator will soon be making a big announcement. We are building a relationship with a world-class online university that offers multiple accredited degree programs. Our students will have the ability to earn a globally recognized Associate’s or Bachelor’s Degree, while utilizing our high-tech workspace, executive function coaching, academic assistance, and career preparation coaching. All of this will cost students just $2,600 per year or $216 per month! This is an unbeatable value. We will publish a chart in the near future comparing our cost to other area colleges; our program blows away all other options.

Also, our Academic Incubator is building relationships with local employers to help qualified students secure paid part-time internships that will more than cover the cost of both the online university and the Academic Incubator. This program will allow students to stay free of loan debt, gain valuable work experience, and earn a degree.

With all of that said, if you are a student in the Cincinnati, OH area looking to attend college, or a company that offers student internships, we would love to hear from you!!!
