In January, similarly to the Summer, we offer a range of options in Italian Language, History of Art, Creative Writing and Music that are coherent with our semester work. The January term is three weeks long and is therefore ideal for those students who cannot leave their college studies for the whole semester, but are still motivated to travel and learn. Students are expected to arrive in Siena where they will be picked up by a School representative and met by their host families. Courses begin after a half-day orientation. All courses are enriched by additional lectures given by visiting artists and academics, excursions, performances and other extracurricular activities.
