College of Academic Pursuits (CAP) is a public institution of secondary education located in Cadence. CAP offers secondary degrees in the areas generalizing in the natural sciences, human arts and sciences, business and enterprise management.

The College of Academic Pursuits is noted throughout southern Illuminatia for its specialized degrees in geology, business management, and industrial and enterprise logistics. Students are enticed to Cadence to attend CAP thanks to its geographic proximity to the natural resources extraction and manipulation industries in the nearby foothills of the Transilluminatian Range. Students who graduate with geology degrees are especially equipped to go to work in the sustainable mining and renewable resources production enterprises that are so popular in the region. It is fairly common for businesses based in the nearby South Coast Megalopolitan Complex to be led by graduates from CAP's business and enterprise management curricula.

Total enrollment at the College of Academic Pursuits is measured at 27,700 students. The populations of Symphonic Bay area cities such as Symphony and Allegro are strongly represented in the student body. UOU receives funding and oversight from the Bureau of Education and Enlightenment. As with most public educational institutions, public funding accounts for nearly all of CAP's operational resources. The university's annual revenue is reported to be about 3,055,000μ/AU. As with all public education institutions, the College of Academic Pursuits enjoys a nearly 100% placement rate upon graduation thanks to a government-assisted matching system.

CAP students are known particularly for their semi-annual prank involving the surreptitious deposition of samples of some novel synthetically material created by the college's chemistry students within a mining or excavation operation in the nearby foothills in efforts to let the material be later uncovered. Sometimes it has taken up to one-half annual unit for the students' prank to be exposed. On occasion, the student-synthesized mineral samples uncovered by mining operators have been the subject of some scientific speculation upon their so-called discovery. However, following one infamous incident that resulted in continent-wide conjecture and intense studying at the most reputable of Illuminatia's chemical laboratories, an anonymous student letter is now traditionally published in the college's student newspaper claiming responsibility for the stunt following the initial public disclosure of the discovery.
