Our beautiful campus sits on the edge of Forest Park near the zoo, art museum, science center, history museum, and the Muny open-air theatre. Here you can make friends and have fun while exploring St. Louis.
  • One of the best parts of the Summer Scholars Program is the people you meet and what you do outside of class. As a Scholar, you will spend approximately 16-20 hours a week in class. Remaining time is free for you to organize as you wish around studying for class, writing papers, doing laundry, socializing, etc. There are trips and social events, but also plenty of unscheduled time where you can get to know Washington University and the other students spending the summer here.
