A growth mindset is empowering. Your talents and abilities can be developed through hard work, through learning new strategies and through the help and input from others. High Point University embraces this mindset to help you learn to value progress, not perfection. There's a mantra here. We don't see obstacles. We see opportunities. Students in all academic disciplines are given the opportunity to partner with professors and engage in research, scholarship and creative endeavors as early as their freshman year in order to build a compelling resume to help them stand out to future employers and graduate schools.
