Program Overview

This is a specially designed interim program.

Sometimes, a student will gain admission to a college or university and choose to begin in a later semester. If that describes your situation, Arcadia has a specially designed program in London for you to consider in the interim! You’ll gain international experience and explore London while earning 16 credits for your semester study, taking classes that utilize the city as your classroom.

Welcoming you will be our expert London faculty. All of whom are published and active in their research fields, and who offer thought-provoking lectures, engaging field studies, and inspiring excursions and cross-cultural activities. You’ll receive comprehensive student support in both the U.S. and in London, with a dedicated team in student health, safety, and security.

This program is a good fit for students who want to earn academic credit and study abroad in a large, culturally diverse urban environment. You’ll become independent, culturally aware, and immeasurably enriched through this experience. Apply today!
