With its moors, lakes, farmlands, and forests, Denmark is the ideal place to enjoy nature and experience a new culture! In this month-long summer college program, you’ll attend an Efterskole (afterschool) College, a distinctive type of Danish school for young people ages 14 to 18. Each afterschool college is a self-governing, independent institution that prioritizes both the educational and personal development of its students. The idea is to combine academic study with general “life-learning” to prepare for all aspects of life and facilitate an understanding of the “individual in a community.”
