Academics, Your Way
The academic experience at The Program is built around choice, flexibility, and personalized support — giving student-athletes an education that adapts to their training demands while maintaining high expectations and accountability.
To keep students accountable, each student completes a weekly academic check-in and connects with a Breakaway Academy advisor for support. The Program still requires daily, in-person attendance — students learn in a classroom with a licensed teacher who guides, challenges, and supports their academic progress.
