The strategy revolves around an initiative called the 鈥渨hole student experience鈥�, which is a holistic educational approach designed to prepare students for success in the 21^st听century. The approach focuses development of all programs and experiences to build and challenge student capabilities inside and outside the classroom in six core areas ranging from globalization and ethics to innovation and leadership.

Leeds has a first-year retention rate above 90 percent, a key factor in the retention calculation used by U.S. News & World Report.
