What are summer schools?
If you've ever wanted to study abroad but don't want to, or can't be, away from home for a long period of time, then summer schools are perfect for you. Summer schools abroad allow you to gain new skills, meet new people and discover new cultures. All the while enriching your academic experience for a summertime overseas.
Summer schools are short programs held during the summer months, usually when you have finished your current year of study at home. They offer a choice of courses in different subjects while providing you with an opportunity to study abroad.
As summer schools only take place over a short period of time, they are a perfect chance to see what life is like studying abroad with less of a commitment.
