Georgetown University

Penn State exists to expand access to education and drive discovery that transforms lives. Founded in 1855 as Pennsylvania's first and only land-grant institution, the university emerged from a fundamental belief that knowledge should be accessible to all, not just the privileged few. Today, that land-grant mission pulses through every aspect of the institution - teaching, research, and service that directly addresses the critical challenges facing Pennsylvania and the world. Across 24 campuses and a robust World Campus, nearly 90,000 students and 20,000 faculty and staff know that the real measure of success goes beyond the classroom - it is the positive impact made across communities worldwide through breakthrough research, community partnerships, and graduates who lead with purpose and integrity. The university consistently ranks among the top institutions globally, not by chasing rankings, but by staying true to core values that have guided it for nearly 170 years. Penn State's research enterprise spans from fundamental science that unlocks the mysteries of the universe to applied innovations that strengthen industries, improve health outcomes, and protect national security. The World Campus extends this educational experience beyond physical boundaries, offering the same rigorous, quality-accredited programs to learners anywhere, anytime - proving that geography should never limit opportunity. With a network of over 750,000 alumni worldwide, Penn State's impact multiplies through graduates who carry forward the land-grant spirit in every field imaginable, from business and healthcare to technology and public service.

University of Maryland Global Campus (UMGC) exists to transform lives through education, serving the students who traditional colleges were built to leave behind - working adults balancing careers and families, military servicemembers deployed around the world, and veterans navigating their next chapter.

As the nation's largest public university, UMGC serves 90,000 students across 23 countries, offering 135+ career-focused programs designed for real-world impact. We've replaced expensive textbooks with no-cost digital resources, built courses from the ground up for online collaboration, and created flexible pathways that recognize prior learning and military experience. Our mission is clear: inspire hope, empower dreams, and make quality, accessible education a reality for those who need it most - one student at a time.
