University of Utah LEAP Program

University of Utah LEAP Program LEAP is a year-long learning community that enables new students to transition more confidently to college and to play a role in their own education.

LEAP is a year-long learning community that enables new students to transition more confidently to college and to play an active role in their own education. Students work with outstanding faculty in small classes and participate in social and service activities with other students and with Peer Advisors. The heart of LEAP is a year-long seminar in which students stay with the same classmates and

faculty member. The seminar is paired in the fall with writing classes reserved for LEAP students. In the spring, LEAP students are offered optional LEAP-only add-on classes in library research strategies and major selection. The year-long seminar fulfills two general education requirements and the University's diversity requirement for the cost of only two classes compared to three classes. This page was created for students, faculty, and staff to share information about LEAP opportunities and events.

The Sunbittern (Eurypyga helias) is often found near forested streams, and ranges from Guatemala to Brazil. It is named for the distinct “sunburst” pattern it displays when its wings are fully extended. Such displays are used not only for defense, but also for courtship.
