Experiential Learning Through Intersession
Intersession is a learning opportunity offered to IMSA students between the first and second semesters. Sessions are taught by faculty, staff, students, alumni, and outside guests. Session topics include math, science, cultural studies, hobbies, life skills, and fine arts. Intersession allows students to explore areas of interest outside of the curriculum. Registration and assignments will take place before the end of the 1st semester. Students will receive an email alerting them to the registration process.
