Inquiry Programs at Goshen College

The Inquiry Programs (Camping, Ministry, Service) of Goshen College give GC students the opportunity to spend 3 months in a camp, congregation or service agency with the goal of exploring vocation and developing skills for leadership.

These goals are achieved through active participation, observation of others in such settings and the tutelage of an on-site supervising mentor.

Over the years, host sites and mentors have also expressed appreciation for the fresh energy, passion and gifts they have received from the GC students who joined them through the different inquiry programs.  The collaborative nature of these programs builds strong connections among the college, the host site, and the student.

Registration Deadlines:

Though we would love to provide placements for all students who apply, we are only able to accept 5-8 applicants per Inquiry Program. There are two deadlines: early-bird (December 1, 2007) and final (January 31, 2008). Students who complete their applications by the early-bird deadline will be processed (accepted or not accepted) first. Depending on the number of applicants in a given year, the possibility exists that all slots might be filled even before the final deadline! Therefore, it is in the best interest of the student to apply early! Complete the application NOW!
