Open Rhodes: Student Schedule
Dates
June 21-22
June 24-25
July 12-13
July 15-16
Capacity for each program date is 125 students. Spaces will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
Please note that, while you will be submitting academic course requests during orientation, there is no advantage to attending an earlier session. Student schedules will not be assigned until after all summer sessions have been completed.
If you’re traveling by air, be sure to book a flight that arrives by noon so you have enough time to arrive and check in before the 1:00 p.m. Welcome Session.
