Horizons Academy Journey

Through a four-year co-curricular program, Horizons Academy students have the opportunity to develop both personal and academic skills. These unique competencies allow young scholars to obtain scholarships to attend the best universities that the most prestigious educational systems have to offer. While Horizons is not a scholarship program, it invests in distinguished students providing them with comprehensive courses, holistic mentorship, college counseling, career development, and guidance. Together, the aforementioned services ensure each student becomes an independent analytical thinker and creative problem-solver.
Furthermore, Horizons Academy researches the trends occurring within higher education annually to develop the co-curricular program and adapt them to the highest level of academic requirements. Through this approach, Horizons Academy offers students rigorous programming to make them competitive applicants amongst those applying worldwide.

Methodology

IQ is the measurement of raw intelligence and is far more associated with nature rather than nurture. It measures reasoning and the ability of thinking abstractly in the sciences, arts, and humanities

EQ focuses on two main factors: empathy and motivation. Thus, not every measure can be nurtured, allowing for various facets to debottleneck an organization. Empathy, coupled with self-awareness, enables one’s gauge of understanding not to be ruled by emotions in one’s actions. On the other hand, motivation feeds greater exposure to being around environments to capture opportunities.

CQ is the ability of being dedicated to a cause, activity, goal, or purpose in the future.
