This year, we are encouraging personal family visits in order to keep our students, faculty, and community safe.  While you’re here, you can observe our classes in session and interview with an admission officer. If an on-campus visit is not possible, give us a call at 719-391-5251 and we’ll set up a virtual tour via zoom, WeChat, or WhatsApp. We hope to bring back our Winter Visiting Day in February 2022 and allow overnights for accepted students beginning in March.
