School Reviews:
January 31,2013 - The Chewonki Semester School was probably the most fulfilling experience of my academic career. The teachers and students are among the wisest and most thoughtful group of people I have ever encountered. Classes were all discussion based and incredibly stimulating. GO. You won''t regret it.*-Posted by Student/Alumni *
