Woolf exists to promote academic excellence, broaden access to higher education, and guard values that are humane, democratic and international.
The Woolf Difference
Talent may be evenly distributed, but opportunity is not—we are committed to widening the horizon of opportunity by connecting students and quality academics across the world. Woolf is the first global collegiate higher education institution that allows education organizations to join as member colleges and offer accredited degrees.
Founders at Deep Science Ventures use their PhDs and our system to accelerate human thriving and planetary wellbeing. We all need more people working on these goals, and Woolf University exists to bring higher education to hundreds of millions of learners, at speed.
