Our vision is to create a culture where people take initiative to fulfil their potential and create a better world...one student at a time.

At Acadia the definition of being entrepreneurial – identifying and fulfilling your potential, and that every Acadia student has the potential to be entrepreneurial.

You can experience it in any part of your life on or off campus – academics, sports, music, clubs, and employment to name a few. Maybe you’re trying to figure out who you are and where you want to go, or maybe you already know your plans but want help to develop your great ideas – whether it’s a social cause for community betterment, a new innovative concept/invention, or a business idea – you can make an impact in the world with an entrepreneurial mindset.

We want you to take the Acadia Challenge...to figure out what is important to you, identify your own personal vision of success and take action to have a positive impact on the world. We encourage you to take the Acadia Challenge, to identify your own potential, and then make it happen.

This website will tell you about many programs and services that you can get involved in to help you figure this out, develop your skills and focus your efforts along the way.
