Scholars‑in‑Training Summer Program (SIT)

Best for: DC-area students who want a paid, academically serious summer experience in Hellenic studies that includes mentorship and skill-building. Day to day: As a day program, students typically spend their time in seminars and guided research or writing work, building toward a final project while learning what scholarly inquiry in Classics looks like. Common pitfalls: The program has specific eligibility requirements and a structured daily schedule, so students should confirm the documentation needed and plan around the full program day rather than treating it as a casual enrichment class.
