U.A. High School students
In the series, U.A. High School (雄英高校, Yūei Kōkō) is a top-ranked academy for training heroes. The school is located atop a forested hill somewhere near Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. There are four academic tracks, or courses, available to students: Hero, General, Support, and Management. Students who are not accepted into the Hero Course are included in the General Course. However, they can still be transferred into the Hero Course by impressing the faculty at the Sports Festival and by making passing grades. As stated by Class 1-A's homeroom teacher, Shota Aizawa, U.A. does not adhere to traditional school methods and allows their faculty to teach their classes however they like. This includes teachers having the authority to expel students for any reason, no matter how minor.[ch.
