“...Most kids left their bike in the backyard at night. Not me. I insisted on taking mine indoors and the first night I even kept it in my bed.”
– John Lennon

You should not have to choose between doing what you love and what is responsible. Our goal is to enable you to do both – and to do it better than anywhere else.
At United Mint Campus you can enroll into a full degree program or a cycling study abroad program.
Cycling is the flagship sport at United Mint Campus – and a source of great pride. We have built a program that has no equal in the world. It offers pro-level training and support for cyclists who want an immersive training experience, while obtaining the security of world-class academic degrees and industry experience.
Wake up, take a class, go riding with your group across the stunning countryside, grab a flat white and make some bike adjustments, swing by a project incubator to work on a project.
