What Students Are Saying

Tough, but what we're learning here is practical knowledge - designed to facilitate critical + creative thinking, effective communication and effective interaction. We learn habits of mind and foundational concepts in these areas - ways of thinking that are a both automatic, combined with concepts you can build on. These are continuously practiced (through spaced repetition) over 4 years until they become natural.

This is unlike academics at traditional schools, where most of the concepts you learn to pass exams will likely be forgotten within a couple of months.

The professors give great, detailed feedback and continuously challenge us.

It is different, but the academics are incredibly difficult. There are no exams. I would give the academic rigor more stars if I could.
