Wildcat Advantage
Wildcat Advantage is a program that helps embed high impact educational experiences (HIEEs) into the college experience of undergraduate and graduate students. HIEEs promote knowledge and skill development which employers, graduate and postgraduate programs highly seek.
Wildcat Advantage is designed to help students easily get involved and be rewarded for participating in at least two HIEEs before graduation.
Participating in the HIEEs Pay program can earn undergraduate students up to $1,500, which is truly an advantage!
HIEEs help students…
- Gain valuable skills in and out of the classroom
- Stand out to employers
- Build meaningful connections
- Make lifelong memories
- Prepare for a future of success
