At ASP you'll wrestle with opposing perspectives on domestic and international issues that are making headlines. But at ASP you go beyond the sound bytes. You talk to a wide variety of people and learn the nuances of debate. You take the information, shape your own perspective and you come to realize you are responsible for what you know.
You'll apply to either the Public Affairs Track or the Marketplace Track. In addition to program practicum courses, you enroll in a track-specific project course. A mentorship course is optional for both tracks.

ASP is an adventure in community. With roommates from different denominational, regional, ideological and sociological backgrounds, here's your chance to explore who you are as individuals and as a group. Washington itself is a diverse community with a range of political views, ethnicities, incomes, religions and education. Explore how different communities uphold or challenge traditions, add their unique voices to the public square and identify with multiple groups. With each encounter, you learn a little more about the topics you're studying and a lot more about yourself and your own community.

Committed people together really can change the world - and God opens doors for those who risk it for the kingdom. Come join us...
