My Nonprofit Reviews

I began at Grey School almost 10 year ago (with an extended break in the middle). I have kept coming back for a few reasons. The first reason is the atmosphere which is ever-present at the school. Yes, as other reviews have mentioned, there can be a child-like or light-hearted feel to certain aspects of the school. The school does have youth enrolled, and their ability to access and understand the course work is important too (and who couldn't use a bit of light-heartedness in their life?). The school supports multiple ways for the attendees to engage one another, if desired, and also to engage with the faculty. And the great part here - the faculty always are willing to engage right back! I would have to agree with other reviewers here - you would get out of this experience what you put into it. If you engage with your fellow enrollees, ask questions of your faculty, get involved in the fun of the lodge competitions, and otherwise engage with the goings-on, you will find an amazing community to be a part of. While you can just do your coursework, and there is almost no requirement to engage with the rest, I think you would miss out on other learning and the experience as a whole.

The breadth and depth of the material covered in the coursework is another reason. With 16 departments and hundreds of courses available, I can easily get lost in all the interesting courses available to me. Not only are new courses and paths being added regularly, but the material of existing courses are being reviewed and updated as well. I have gone back and retaken courses, just to get the updated material! When I have had questions, I have found all the faculty to be knowledgeable in the subjects they are teaching.

Give this a try, you won't be disappointed!
