NewU University, based in the heart of Washington, DC, right next to the White House, is a private, online-focused institution. It is the first 3-year Bachelor’s degree college in the US. NewU accepted its first class of students in 2022, with a mission to revolutionize higher education by providing accessible, high-quality education tailored to modern needs, like those balancing education with work and personal commitments. What sets NewU apart is its student-centric approach, offering fully personalized learning experiences, competency-based education, and an emphasis on career readiness. The university highlights its innovation in flexible learning models to create a more inclusive and adaptable higher education environment for everyone involved.
Is this the future of education? What is it like to be a university in it’s scale up phase in this decade? Can it successfully scale its model while maintaining high standards?
