SWAP – WORK SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM:
Students may obtain a significant discount on the utility
fee by participating in SWAP (Student Work Assistance
Program). Scholarship participants will perform
assigned tasks (such as cleaning, grounds keeping,
kitchen help, etc.) for a set number of hours weekly.
The SWAP participant’s account will be credited a set
amount for each hour worked. Details of this program
and how to apply for the SWAP scholarship are clearly
outlined in the Student Handbook (issued upon acceptance
to Faith).
EARLY ARRIVALS & VACATIONS
All students are expected to leave campus during
breaks (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Spring Break, etc.).
Any student who has no place to go must see the president
for permission to stay. Those who are granted
special permission to stay must work four hours daily
and must provide their own meals. Any student returning
early from break must obtain permission from
the president at least 24 hours in advance. Those who
arrive early without permission will pay a fine of $20 per day and may be required to participate in the
planned work program.
HOUSING
Single full-time students are required to live on campus.
Exceptions may be made by the president. Married
students without children have the option of living
on campus in a single room or off campus at their
own expense. Due to the lack of on campus facilities,
married students with families need to live off campus
at their own expense.
EMPLOYMENT
Off-campus students: Off-campus students may hold
off-campus employment if their work schedule does
not interfere with school activities. |
