Academics
The courses you take in D.C. are at the heart of the Cornell in Washington Program. Choose from fall, spring, or summer classes taught by leading Cornell faculty and earn Cornell credits. Open to students from any college and any major.
Fall/Spring Semester
Enroll in one core course and two or three electives, complete an internship, do a research project, and take advantage of all DC has to offer. This option is open to Cornell students only.
Summer Term
During the eight-week summer term, you’ll enroll in one course, earn four Cornell credits, and, if you wish, complete an internship. This option is open to Cornell students who have completed their freshman year.
AMAZING! Best experience of my life, woke up with a huge smile on my face every day.
