Details
Who should attend? Juniors and Seniors in High School who are interested in checking out the BICS program.
What’s the cost? There is no cost to the student! Your preview of the BICS experience is on us!
What about parents? Parents/youth leaders are welcome to join us! Unfortunately, we’re not able to accommodate parents overnight, but we could help point you to some of the more affordable hotel options in the area.
What will we do? We’ve included a tentative schedule to the right. Basically, you’ll get to know the students, stay at the dorms, sit in on a class, attend chapel, and have an opportunity to get all your questions answered.
Can’t make the date? Just let us know and we’d be glad to schedule a visit on a different day.
Questions? Send us an email at info@berkshireinstitute.org!
