Institution Cohort Participation

In addition to individual admissions, schools may request an Institution/School Cohort or Class Trip format—a school-led version of UNAT-style global leadership training designed for student groups (middle school through college), with the academic level customized to match the cohort.
In this format, your school selects the themes you want your students to learn (e.g: global issues, leadership, diplomacy, policy thinking, UN systems), and Stanley Prep helps shape those goals into a structured cohort program with clear session outcomes and a simple coordination process.
This is a strong fit for schools that want a guided, high-impact global leadership experience for a specific group—such as faculty-led college cohorts, global studies cohorts, Model UN teams, high school debate teams, or student council/leadership groups.

How the UNAT School Cohort (Custom Track) Customized Cohort Works

Choose your focus

Your school tells us what you want students to learn—topics, skills, or a specific theme (ex: SDGs, negotiation, policy writing, diplomacy, global governance).

We design the cohort outline

We recommend a structured program outline based on your goals and student profile (Junior/Senior HS), including suggested learning outcomes and session flow.

Simple coordination + student readiness

You’ll receive a planning checklist, timeline, and optional parent-ready materials so your school can communicate clearly with families.

Who This Is Best For

  • Schools, Colleges, and Universities building a structured global leadership track for students
  • Colleges/Universities running faculty-led cohorts (global studies, international affairs, public policy)
  • Model UN/debate and student leadership cohorts
  • Schools seeking a program that can be aligned with curriculum or club priorities
