Shepherds College is located on a beautiful campus in Union Grove, WI. A campus visit is a great way to see and experience first-hand what Shepherds is all about. We are confident you will be impressed by our comfortable surroundings and, more importantly, by the spirit of respect and care that permeates our campus.

Preview Days

Whether you are a prospective student, family member, professional, or community member, we would love to invite you to an on-campus Preview Day. While on campus, we will share our fully accredited vocational training program designed specifically for students with IDD.

You will experience a tour that will highlight the supportive academic and student life programming. You will also meet and hear from our students, interact with staff, and see firsthand an environment designed for our students to reach their vocational and independent living aspirations. Register for one of our upcoming dates to learn more.

Preview Days are:

“Touring Shepherds College was an invaluable experience for our teachers, parents and students. It was obvious that the SC staff are committed to create a meaningful college experience for each student, and are dedicated to successful outcomes for students upon graduation. Our students left the tour excited about the possibility of attending Shepherds College.”

"Thank you for taking the time to show us around the college and give us an overview. It is truly inspirational to see what God is doing there.
