Want to advance your degree this winter? Does studying abroad during the summer excite you? Or maybe you can’t get enough of the University of Virginia and never want to leave Grounds? (You wouldn’t be the first.) January Term and Summer Session offer immersive learning experiences year-round.
Dive deeper into your field or expand your academic horizons with subjects that speak to your innate curiosity. January Term and Summer Session feature condensed courses that involve greater interaction with professors in small classes. The courses emphasize experiential learning, providing more opportunities for hands-on experiences beyond a lecture hall.
In the calm between semesters, the University of Virginia comes alive with academic, research and study-abroad opportunities offered to current and visiting students. The January Term format features small class sizes for more direct student-faculty interaction and the opportunity for intensive study of unconventional subjects not offered in Fall and Spring semesters.
Whether classes are held on Grounds or across the globe, students can explore unique academic opportunities only available during UVA’s Summer Session. These courses are available to current Hoos, students from other universities and rising high school juniors and seniors. Students can lighten a future course load, accelerate degree completion or participate in research programs that go beyond traditional curricula.
