No other college or university offers its incoming class of students an experience as memorable and exciting as Prescott College’s Wilderness Orientation. In small groups consisting of ten students and two advanced student leaders or alumni, Resident Degree Program students travel on an extended backpacking trip through beautiful and remote areas of Arizona.

I’d never heard of anything like this before until this summer when I found out my cousin was one of the advanced leaders. It really sounds like an amazing experience and would love to do some backpacking someday. What better way to start college then out in the wilderness learning about nature and I’m sure much more. According to Prescott College’s website 90% of incoming freshman participate in this program.
