Give your summer months some international flair! York University summer abroad courses have a combined format, with one to three weeks of class instruction at the York campus, and up to four weeks abroad with your classmates and York professor in another country. We hope to be able to offer the following study abroad programs in summer 2021.
Due to restrictions on travel due to COVID-19, we are unable to confirm whether summer abroad courses will go ahead in 2021. Please check back regularly for updates or contact Katie Gribbons, study abroad coordinator, at katiegr@yorku.ca.
