GCP prepares students to operate as informed, culturally aware, and globally competent leaders through a combination of academic coursework, foreign language study, and immersive international experiences.

Participants are required to study a foreign language for a minimum of three years and apply those skills through real-world global engagement.

During the summer between their junior and senior years, students participate in a six-week study-abroad program where they can earn up to nine college credits. These experiences include language and history coursework, interdisciplinary global studies, and either an internship or an academic track-based course.

Students also participate in Model United Nations simulations, strengthening leadership, diplomacy, and decision-making skills.

Through these experiences, students develop the ability to navigate diverse environments, think critically about global issues, and engage effectively across cultures.
