Evangelhouse Christian Academy has opened its doors to international students through the Student Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP), organized through the Department of Homeland Security. Historically students wishing to attend ECA from abroad had to be U.S. citizens. With the new approval, Evangelhouse can now accept students of other national citizenship.
The Evangelhouse therapeutic boarding school was established in 1995 to serve Christian families with a quality residential treatment for girls. Evangelhouse pioneered a treatment model that blends licensed behavioral healthcare with the structure of a boarding school. Since then, it has evolved to become the premier non-denominational Christian option among teen residential treatment centers. This specialized approach has shown to have international appeal.
The ECA administration believes that hosting international students be a valuable experience, and has taken steps to thoughtfully integrate them into the peer culture of the school. Evangelhouse limits its enrollment to 14 students, but several of those openings are now available for international students.
