ABOUT US »
Our student body at Salt is unique and diverse. Students come from all over the country [ and sometimes from other countries ] to converge for one intensive semester learning the ins and outs of doing documentary work in the real world. Have an interesting history of adventures, an array of educational experience, a penchant for travel, and a fearless spirit? Then we encourage you to apply. We attract anthropologists, sociologists, activists, journalists, artists, and nomads. If you've always thought that no other educational experience has been quite "you," then you may have just found your soulmate.
The Details »

» 15 week course [ that hits the ground running and doesn't let up! ]
