Washington and Lee University
The academic year at W&L is divided into three segments: a 12-week fall term, 12-week winter term, and 4-week spring term. Our calendar allows us to teach specialized courses which are narrowly-designed in scope during the spring term. It also enhances study-abroad and internship opportunities. Each spring, a number of our professors lead study-abroad programs. We also offer a spring politics program in Washington, D.C. and global finance program in Manhattan - in each of these programs, students intern in individual offices while meeting for weekly classes and seminars.
