Overall, my experience at Prescott College has been wonderful! The classes are very interesting and focused on social and ecological justice. The instructors are passionate about their work and making the world a better place! I attended online, and I thought their online class set-up was excellent. I've learned a lot, grown my skills, and feel inspired. The hardest aspect of going to Prescott was financial. I received little financial aid and the scholarship opportunities, especially for the limited residency program, were extremely limited. I would like to see this school be more accessible to students without parental support. They have a lot to offer!
I have my career because of my Prescott degree. The tuition is pricey, but the mentor-driven structure of my degree (B.A. Environmental Science: Wildlife Biology) provided me with a professional network that led to full-time employment in my field. The structure allowed me to select and design relevant coursework tailored toward my career goals. I truly believe I wouldn’t have the same career if I had gone elsewhere. I did have a strong foundation through structured courses from another university (Oregon State) that helped. I think much of the success at Prescott depends on your advisor and mentors, so choose carefully and advocate for what you need as a student. I recommend mixing in courses from other universities to round out the education. Transfer in as much as possible, but tailor the end of your degree here to be competitive for tough jobs!
Prescott college has been a dream of mine since I was a freshman in high school, I am now an incoming freshman starting next week! Prescott's faculty have been beyond supportive and helpful with resources during the whole enrollment process. My experience so far has been nothing but delightful and I am beyond excited for the experience's Prescott College has to offer. If you love being outdoors, connecting with your peers, learning in the field, as well a many camping adventure's under the Arizona sky Prescott is the college for you.
