A 5-day, on-campus immersion - Harvard student mentors and real-world programs brought directly into your school. No field trips. No buses. Just transformative learning, taught where your students already are.
WHAT IT IS
Week Without Walls is an in-school initiative that brings experiential learning directly to your campus. An immersive week of workshops, interdisciplinary projects, and hands-on activities - sustainability challenges, innovation labs, cultural exploration, service learning - where students collaborate across grades, develop leadership and teamwork, and engage with real-world issues in creative ways. Every learner gets access to meaningful enrichment while staying rooted in your school's learning environment.
HOW IT WORKS
Choose a 5-day window that fits your calendar - term time or holiday.
Mix and match the streams that best suit your students and grades.
Harvard student mentors fly in. We handle delivery; you host on campus.
Every student walks away with a tangible project, pitch, or portfolio piece.
PROGRAMS
Every program is delivered by current Harvard student mentors at a 1:20 ratio. Run one. Run four in parallel. The week is yours to shape.
A five-day startup boot camp - empathy interviews to a working AI MVP and a 3-minute Demo Day pitch.
Five days of identity, governance, and live debate - students design and present a functioning Student Leadership Council.
Build leadership through team activities, speeches, and a Passion Project guided by Harvard student mentors.
A five-day immersion into medicine, anatomy, clinical decision-making, and the pre-med journey.
An intensive five days in legal reasoning, mock trials, constitutional law, and global advocacy.
Five days of immersive debate - argument, rebuttal, strategy, and live competitive rounds.
Build a working AI social-impact project using Python, OpenCV, and modern deep-learning tools.
A MUN & Communication Workshop plus a live MUN Conference - sharpen public speaking, research, and writing to win 'Best Delegate' at your next conference.
An academic fellowship for students aiming to publish original research in peer-reviewed journals - built to stand out in college applications.
OUTCOMES
Week Without Walls is outcome-driven by design. Every program ends with a tangible deliverable, a public showcase, a co-signed certificate, and a portfolio asset students can carry into their next interview or college application.
Every student ships something real - a working product URL, a signed charter, a strategic deck, a courtroom case file.
Every week closes with a live showcase to peers, faculty, Harvard student mentors, or external judging panels.
Co-signed by the Harvard partner - HPAIR, Harvard WiCS, or the Onward Fellowship - depending on the stream.
A finished piece students can reference in college essays, interviews, scholarship applications, and future programs.
