It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Students live in on-campus residences called toons (Armenian for 'house'). Usually two or four students share a room; Toon Parents supervise the residences to maintain a safe and healthy environment.
The college cafeteria provides five meals a day (breakfast, lunch and dinner, plus two snacks). The menu accommodates dietary needs with vegan, dairy-free, halal, and gluten-free options, and dishes are labelled; themed meals occur during cultural weeks; a Food Committee monitors service.
There are four Toons: Vardenis, Maymekh, Arpa and Debed. The UWC Dilijan Student Council comprises eight Toon representatives, two from each Toon, reflecting the house-based residential structure.
UWC Dilijan College was established by the Dilijan International School of Armenia Foundation (DISA) and is governed by its Board of Governors. The Board, which can have up to 15 members, is the highest managing body and approves the budget and appoints the Head. The Foundation is a non-commercial legal entity; Scholae Mundi Foundation (CIO) supports the College financially and by promotion, with at least one-third of its trustees serving on UWCD's Board.
