Every EACPA student is also enrolled in a WASC accredited school, and we make this seamless through established partnerships with accredited institutions. The student completes all core academic curriculum through the accredited partner, while the equine studies, athletics, professional experience, and internships come from EACPA. The WASC accredited courses are included in EACPA tuition.
The student comes to campus and follows our daily schedule. Core coursework is completed online within a classroom, surrounded by peers and supported by a credentialed teacher on site. All equine electives and activities take place on the EACPA campus in real time with a live instructor.
Students enrolled in a public school can take individual EACPA courses on a pay per course basis.
