Welcome to the intensive hub!
If you are a BAC student registered for a studio or course with an "intensive component," then this is the place for you.
The Intensive is a time where students and faculty share eight exhilarating days together building community and accelerating the learning and iterative process. The main idea of the Intensive Week is to give students enrolled in an otherwise fully online degree program the opportunity to be exposed to on campus student life at the BAC, however briefly. That said, some intensive courses allow students to participate in a remote intensive option instead, for those who absolutely cannot make the trip to Boston.
The condensed design of the Intensive curriculum means that students are fully immersed in the experience, whether attending remotely or in-person. Either way, students must take off from work and major responsibilities during that week.

WhatsApp Groups: Students can connect with each other in advance using WhatsApp groups. How do you join? When you fill out your intensive forms, just select the option to give the BAC permission to add you to your corresponding Intensive Week WhatsApp group. Link to the forms coming soon!
