I applied this summer and because the campus was closed, I thought it would be too difficult and impersonal. My experience so far has been just the opposite! I had phone calls and a zoom meeting with my admissions rep. She walked me through the process of applying, and helped me fill out financial aid application information. I'm accepted and on my way this fall. My mom just sent her a list of questions, because we're still sorting out the details of moving and choosing classes. But I know I'm in a good place and will get all the help I need as I move forward with my education.
Every student, in addition to taking classes and their volunteer hours, is on a work crew that helps the college. Payment for work is applied toward your room and board. The additional commitments are challenging, but also highly rewarding!
It's a small community that grants space for individual attention and helpful resources. As a triad school, students spend time focusing on their education as well as community engagement and work. Work is done on a "crew" on campus, allowing students to get a feel for trades they may be interested in as well as being a member of a working community that gives back. The location is a big part of the school's charm and fairytale environment.
