Everything about the university has been absolutely phenomenal - from the staff and administration to the students, everyone has gone out of their way to ensure I was safe and happy and warmly welcomed. The teachers have made a point of checking in with me and making appointments if needed, and the students have included me in their facebook groups for our classes and year. The campus is small enough that everyone seems to know everyone, which is very exciting, as you know someone almost anywhere you go! Even in town, there's always someone you know passing through the shops and it's nice to know that I have become part of such a small but amazing community. The dance program has been especially amazing, pushing me further beyond what I ever thought was possible, both physically and mentally.
What would you improve about this program?
The communication at the beginning of the summer could be improved.. when the acceptance goes out I believe it could have been more clear as to what the next steps would have been for students requiring a visa. (i.e. sending a scanned picture of your passport, requesting a CAS document and number, etc)
