Student Experience FAQs
Where do students live?
We are conveniently located off of the TriMet Max line. Students often rent apartments and houses within the suburbs of Hillsboro and Beaverton along the mass transit line.
What can I do in the area?
Oregon has the best of all worlds! Interested in trying different restaurants and catching a concert? Head into downtown Portland, ranked one of the best “foodie” cities in the country! Enjoy the outdoors? Head to Forest Park and explore over 70 miles of trails or skiing on Mt. Hood. We are also only an hour away from the Oregon Coast.
Is it possible to work while obtaining the degree?
The three-year program is fast-paced and rigorous; therefore, we suggest students do not work off-campus while they are attending the program.
