Learn MoreWe encourage high school students to be prepared to handle the commitment that our programs require. In high school, most of students’ time is spent in the classroom under a teacher’s supervision. At NCAD, students spend most of their time outside of class, working independently. Spending two to three hours on homework for each class will be necessary to be successful.
