Discover a new interest. Forge a new path. Meet new friends—all while living and learning in one of the world's greatest cities.
With New York City as their home and classroom, NYC Summer Academy students join the ranks of many of the world’s greatest thinkers, writers and dreamers. From New York’s world-class museums and performing arts centers to startup labs and think tanks, this city is rich in creativity and inspiration and its resources are seemingly endless. Summer Academy provides students with an immersive environment in which they learn, investigate and explore while having fun with friends, mentors and instructors who share their passions and interests.
Students are offered two-week programs throughout June and July and may enroll in more than one term. Academic and nonacademic components of the program are integrated to form a holistic approach that ensures students are making the most of their time both inside and outside the classroom.
Students can elect to attend Summer Academy as either a residential or day student.
Residential Students
Residential students stay in a dorm-like facility in the heart of New York City and are overseen by program staff. The location equips students with easy access to Central Park, Times Square, Columbus Circle and the Hudson River — the perfect starting point to explore everything NYC has to offer. Students participate in a rich set of evening and weekend activities to complement the academic program.
Day Students
Day students commute to a dorm-like facility in the heart of New York City on weekday mornings to participate in the academic program. Students have the option of staying for dinner and may choose to participate in evening and weekend activities.

The residence hall is air-conditioned and also contains student lounges and programming spaces.
Residential Life
Residential program staff members, including the Residential Directors, reside adjacent to students in the residence hall. Academic residential assistants are undergraduate students and recent graduates who supervise program participants in residential life activities and serve as well-informed educational guides throughout the program. They ensure students are in a safe and nurturing environment that is also fun and engaging. Academic residential assistants are joined by other staff who are responsible for organizing extracurricular activities and ensuring smooth program operations.
Dining
Students will eat most of their meals in the housing facility’s cafeteria-style dining halls that serve a wide variety of healthy menu items for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The dining halls may provide vegetarian, vegan and kosher options and are able to accommodate some special dietary needs. In addition to meals in the dining halls, students will also have opportunities to partake in the diverse range of food options that New York City offers.
