Past Summer Study Away Blocks
Why Look at Past Programs?
When will the 2024 Summer Programs Be Announced?
Off-Campus Blocks for Summer 2024 will be announced in early November. At that time a new webpage will be added with information on each program. The Summer Study Away Fair is scheduled for Thursday, November 30 and we would recommend that all students interested in summer study away attend the fair. November 30 will also be the first day when online applications will be open. They will remain open through the January Half Block period before Block 5 begins. Students are encouraged to apply on Summit during this period to maximize their potential to earn a Summer Block Away financial aid award. Late applicants are far less likely to obtain an aid award due to demand for the limited pool of summer aid.
Examples of 2022 & 2023 Summer Study Away Blocks
This course explores the spectacular remains of Greek and Roman antiquity as well as the legacy of the classical tradition in Italy. We survey the art and architecture of Greece and Rome from their origins in the Bronze Age to their transformation in the late Roman Empire. Our journey includes stays in Rome and the bay of Naples, where we voyage down the Amalfi Coast to the Greek colony of Paestium, sail to the island of Capri, and later visit the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
