Admission Criteria
Soltreks customizes and individualizes treks for students to participate in either a group or one-on-one wilderness experience. Although Soltreks modifies treks for a student who might otherwise be denied enrollment, there are some circumstances that may preclude enrollment:
Physical limitations which minimizes ones ability to participate after considering a customized trek
Severe Psychiatric disorders
Medical illnesses will be looked at on an individual basis, such as diabetes and illness due to food allergies
Violent behaviors
Severe addictions that require the need to go through a detoxification process
Potential for suicide attempts
   

Psychological Evaluation

Soltreks offers optional Psychological Evaluation testing in areas of cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning. Psychological testing can answer diagnostic questions or personality issues that impact a young person's life. Assessment results provide an objective indicator of a student's capabilities and help determine their best fit with schools and residential programs. These services are optional and at an additional fee through Psychological Testing Services, Inc.
