My program would only work if lots of people who had high IQs would be unwilling to finish the program even if graduating from the program would significantly benefit your career so it wouldn't be comparable to an unpaid internship.

Leadership/social activities don't have to be tied to academics. Given that my graduates would save a huge amount of time and money they would have even more opportunities for "extracurriculars" than traditional college students do.
