SageSemester Program
An immersive experience for teens, 14 to 18 years old, ready to discover who they are, why they’re here, and how to bring their ideas to life—with the mental, emotional tools to thrive.
PHASE 1: DISCOVER
Discover Who You Are and Your Purpose
A four-week prerequisite course: before deciding what to study and choosing a path, teens explore their strengths, values, personality, and purpose—so decisions come from clarity and their unique strength, not pressure and societal expectation.
Teens learn what they care about, and how they want to contribute—so the next decisions come easy using both intuition and logic.
Key Topics:
- Explore your unique personality, talents, interests and natural strengths. Tools like MBTI, Enneagram, value mapping, and eastern systems.
- Discover how to build a career or make a difference using your gifts—aligned with future trends, in-demand skills, and real-world needs.
- Create a personal plan to explore career paths, build skills, and gain the right experience.
- Understand your post–high school options: college, creative alternatives, or entering the workforce.
PHASE 2: APPLY
Turn Your Ideas into Action
A immersive summer program to learn, create, serve, lead. It’s time to turn passion into practice and learn real life skills.
In this phase, teens take action on what they care about—through service, creativity, leadership, or learning.
Whether it’s volunteering, starting a project, trying out a new skill, or launching a start-up idea, they’ll choose a real-world experience that stretches them and brings their purpose to life.

PHASE 3: LAUNCH
Optional: Launch Your Post-Grad Steps
For teens ready to take the next step toward college, career, or alternative paths.
