The Experience of a Lifetime
Each student who enrolls at Culver Academies takes part in a time-honored, intentional process on the path to leadership. We provide them the foundation to become capable and confident citizens. Here every scholar explores their own purpose and potential, serves as much as they lead, and strives to impact their communities and the world for the better.
Culver's Distinguished Scholarship Program
To help students explore their full potential, Culver offers five scholarships, each a life-changing opportunity for young people to thrive as learners and leaders.
