The RISD Global webpage displays this year’s opportunities for Wintersession study abroad travel.
Registration for Wintersession Travel courses requires that the instructor approve a student’s application. Students do not register for these courses themselves.
- Students MUST attend the Instructor’s information session, which provides students with information about the goals and objectives of the travel course. In some instances, a direct meeting with the instructor of the course may be an alternative to session attendance. Feel free to contact the instructor of your interested travel course for more information. Information sessions take place between September 20 and October 2, and are available to all students interested in registering.
- Students may apply for only one Wintersession travel course through Slate. The application opens on September 19 on the RISD Global website.
- Faculty review student applications
- Wintersession Travel course registration takes place in October
