Prescott is truly a unique school! Other people I know who went to other colleges did not get the same hands-on experience I did. My other friends who went to other schools spent all their time in lecture halls and cramming for tests, I spent all my time doing fieldwork and internships!
I got the one-on-one attention that I needed and had easy access to my professors, departments, and peers. BEcause it is a small school with small class sizes, I felt like I got to know everyone and always knew who to go to with questions. Everyone was so supportive of me and my goals, and now I'm working in a job they helped me get, doing what I love! PRescott College is well worth checking out for any student.

I transferred and most of my credits were accepted! : ) . (Unlike several other colleges & universities I had looked into). The orientation was informative and hands on : ie. we were shown how to navigate the college's various platforms as I was taking their Distance Learning program. Earned a Bachelor's in Human Development with an emphasis in the Performing Arts. Their was a spirit of healthy competition in all of my classes. (I worked my butt off to be in "the running" and enjoyed it). My advisors were extraordinary, (a shout out to Esther Almazan), and they raised the bar quite high academically. For example we had to write a thesis in order to earn our Bachelor's Degree. If you are motivated - Prescott College is a great choice! p.s. We converged on the College's campus twice a year & there was an international student body that was sizable!
Administration is very disorganized and consistently delivers delayed responses. Much of the student body has a demographic of faux woke hippies, many of whom are drug addicts. The academics are not very rigorous and I didn't think it was a motivating or safe environment to learn in. The selection of classes is terribly limited and the somewhat decent offerings are generally related to sustainability studies or adventure education. Only one language is offered. Everything is too tiny including the ridiculously small number of students. At least half of the people I met during my first year either transferred or dropped out. You could find a much better value and nicer environment elsewhere. This school is for a very specific type of person. I will say I liked nearly every professor I worked with.
