High school graduates experience college life in Croatia

by Jenna Warren

High school graduates from the class of 2022 have taken a leap into higher education through RIT’s inaugural Post-High School Semester in Europe. The program has provided these students the opportunity to spend a semester at RIT’s campus in Dubrovnik, Croatia, taking three classes, conducting research, and enjoying experiential learning trips throughout Croatia and in Rome, Italy.

Students have already embarked on some of the several trips included in the semester. These trips are led by professional local tour guides who explain the sites’ historical and cultural significance. So far, the students have taken a trip to the Pelješac Peninsula along Croatia’s Adriatic coast; a trip to Zagreb, Croatia’s capital, and to Rome, Italy; a trip to the towns of Zadar and Split along Croatia’s Dalmatian coast; and a trip to Croatia’s Plitvice Lakes National Park.
