Student Life | Intermediate Program

Each session, approximately 630 students (450 residential, 180 day) arrive at the Intermediate Program from all over the world. Our diverse student body is a self-selected group of young people interested in making new friends and trying new things. This open community of artists, writers, athletes, musicians, leaders, scientists, activists, dancers, and scholars forms the ideal summer environment for personal exploration, learning, and growth.

While at the Program, you are allowed to map out how you want to spend your day within a flexible, yet structured, environment. You can choose activities you are familiar with, but we also encourage you to expand your horizons and try something new each day. Our students have an eclectic array of interests, and you will learn as much from interacting with them and learning about their interests as they will learn from you.



Last year, 70% of our students arrived without knowing other students at the Intermediate Program.

Approximately 70% of Intermediate Program students are residential and about 30% are day students.

Approximately 10% of the Intermediate Program's student body is made up of international students.
