Description: Barnard's Summer in New York is a coed program for high school students who are intellectually prepared for college-level work and will have completed the 10th or 11th grade. We offer three different programs: In our Four-Week Program, participants choose two courses from a variety of topics, including, but not limited to, Literature, Art History, and Dance.
New this year: Architecture Classes, ESL and College Essay Writing, PLUS brand new Theatre and Film Classes!
One-week Mini-Course participants focus on a single subject of the same caliber.
Young Women's Leadership Institute students attend workshops and explore the complex relationship between gender and leadership.
Whichever session you choose, you will be offered a unique opportunity to explore New York both in and out of the classroom while you live and learn like a college student, build leadership skills, and explore career opportunities. Your studies may include visiting an art gallery, attending a poetry slam, or meeting city leaders. Evenings and weekends are filled with organized trips to cultural attractions and landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty and Rockefeller Center. You may want to catch a film at an outdoor festival, hang out in Central Park, or escape to Jones Beach for a day. In short, you’ll get an unforgettable taste of your future while experiencing life in one of the most exciting cities in the world.
