Mission  
School mission: Thiel is a place where classes are smaller, personal attention is a priority, and friendships are easily formed. Professors and administrators are accessible and involved in students' development; one of the reasons why Thiel graduates are so successful (98% of graduates job or are enrolled in graduate school within eight months of graduation). Freshmen adapt to college life through Thiel's First-Year Experience program. More than half our students take advantage of study abroad and internships. Personalized financial aid benefits more than 95% of students, making Thiel's values-based education an affordable investment in the future.
