Support
Student life at Horizon College & Seminary offers a unique experience. It is a place where you are surrounded by people who are hungry to know more of God. At Horizon you will connect with students, staff, and faculty in ways that will bring you closer to Christ and that will ultimately transform you. Through classes, one-on-one conversations, spiritual formation groups, and chapels you will also get a chance to grow spiritually academically, and socially.
Here you’ll find a list of support documents, policies and more.
Academic Assistance
Academic Coaching
Academic Coaching is a one-on-one process in which the Academic Coach will help you identify strengths and weaknesses in your study habits, establish your academic achievement goals, and develop the strategies and skills that will lead you to academic success.
Academic Coaching appointments are available for all HCS students on Monday and Wednesday afternoons throughout the semester.
Disability Services and Learning Accommodations
Accommodations are fundamental to support students with disabilities. While the supports and resources of Horizon College and Seminary (HCS) have some limitations, HCS will work to give students with disabilities access to HCS and the opportunity to succeed academically.
Students are responsible to ensure HCS is aware of their request for accommodations and to provide HCS with the professional diagnosis and recommendations as outlined in the Medical Questionnaire. Note that student life and academic support is limited over the summer term.
