Are you currently Wilderness First Aid or Wilderness First Responder certified? *
Given the backcountry nature of the course's "classroom," we are currently considering requiring all accepted students to enroll in an affordable, online Wilderness First Aid Certification course (cost is approximately $35-40). Are you willing to complete such a course if accepted (this has no bearing on whether or not you are actually accepted; rather, we are gauging interest in the course being incorporated into the course curriculum, much like a text book in other courses)?
Clear selection
This class takes place on the following dates: Saturday, January 14; Saturday, January 28; Saturday, February 18; Saturday and Sunday, March 4-5; Saturday through Saturday, March 11-18; Saturday, March 25; Saturday, April 15; Saturday, April 29. Are you committed to blocking off these dates? *
This class may incur additional costs apart from tuition. Costs may include several meals, personal equipment, and travel costs (fuel), etc. How reasonable is it for you to spend up to $200 in addition to class tuition for such items (keep in mind that there are no required textbooks for the course, but there is a bike rental fee if you do not already own a suitable one or plan to purchase one). *
Not reasonable at all
Very reasonable
It is important to note that a field course of this nature does not come without its physical risks (related to multiple days biking in rugged and periodic backcountry environments, primitive camping scenarios, and endurance activities). Each student accepted into the course is required to sign a "Release and Hold Harmless Agreement" from Texas Tech University. Are you committed to signing this agreement? *
