statement of faith
School of Worship is a ministry of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa.
housing
Unfortunately, we are unable to offer “on-campus” housing for students. However, there is an off-campus girl's house as well as an off-campus guy's house with very limited spots available each year for those who would like to rent a room. Once these houses are full, we try to connect students with housing openings or rooms for rent as they come available. Ultimately, it is the student's responsibility to secure housing for themselves, and the cost is not included in the School of Worship tuition.
iPads
All students will receive an iPad when they pay their non-refundable registration fee at the beginning of the school year. The iPad will be configured with School of Worship apps and will remain the property of the School of Worship until the end of the school year. At that time, ownership of the iPad will transfer to the student, provided that their tuition has been paid in full.
• Accepted students who already own an iPad will have the iPad fee waived.
