Students are assessed on their growth and mastery of skills over the course of the program, with a step-down approach to instruction, that prepares the students for a high level of independence upon completion of the program. In addition to completing core courses, students are active socially to develop lasting friendships through our Social Engagement Program including participating in on-campus activities, excursions in the local community, elective classes, and retreats.
