DOUBLE CREDIT: EUROPE
Our double-credit program will take you through some of the most iconic cities and breathtaking spots in Europe. Over the course of this program, students will not only earn two academic credits but will also explore the rich cultural and historical landscapes of Italy, Croatia, and Greece.
Our program begins in the heart of history with a visit to the Eternal City, Rome, where the ancient world comes alive. From the grandeur of the Colosseum to the awe-inspiring Vatican City, Rome’s rich heritage will captivate and inspire students at every turn. We will then head to Florence, which offers a deep dive into Renaissance art and culture. Enjoy this breathtaking city, with its cobblestone streets, cafes and gelateria’s, and the gorgeous sunrises and sunsets. Take a walking tour and see the Piazzale Michelangelo, Ponte Vecchio, Santa Maria del Fiore and Galleria dell ’Accademia, famous for its sculptures by the great Renaissance artist, Michaelangelo.
Our adventure continues with an overnight ferry to Split, Croatia. Take a walking tour of Diocletian’s Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage site that is a stunning blend of ancient Roman architecture and modern life, where historic ruins coexist with bustling cafes, shops, and homes. You will have the option to visit the Krka Waterfalls and experience the turquoise waters, lush greenery and vibrant wildlife. From there, we will journey to the picturesque island of Hvar, where students can bask in the sun, explore medieval architecture, and immerse themselves in the island’s lush landscapes. We’ll conclude our Croatian journey in Dubrovnik, famously known as the ‘Pearl of the Adriatic.’ Its majestic city walls and well-preserved old town will transport you back to the medieval era.
Next, sail into the Greek Islands where we continue to the world-famous island of Santorini, with its iconic, white-washed buildings, crystal-clear waters, and unforgettable sunsets. The whole archipelago of Santorini is still an active volcano. Students will have the option to take a tour to see the unique volcanic landscapes. From Santorini, we will make our way to Syros. One of the islands of the Cyclades, Syros is known for its long white sandy beaches and clear turquoise waters. When coming into the island by boat, you will have a stunning view of the island, and a preview of the incredible architecture. Walk the streets of Ermoupoli, the capital of the island, and explore the local shops, admire the Venetian marble buildings, and take in the amazing scenery that Cycladic nature provides. Conclude your academic and cultural adventure in the cradle of democracy, Athens. Here, students will explore ancient landmarks like the Acropolis and the Parthenon while experiencing the modern energy of Greece’s bustling capital.
This once-in-a-lifetime journey offers a perfect blend of education, exploration, and adventure, ensuring students return home with not only academic achievements but also lifelong memories.
