Due to ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, SFS has made several adjustments to our Summer 2021 program lineup including shifting some programs originally scheduled for Summer I to Summer II and cancelling certain programs.
Cancelled Programs
These programs will be offered again starting in Summer 2022.
Summer I Programs
Dates: June 7 – July 7, 2021
Summer II Programs
Dates: July 11 – August 10, 2021
Summer Combined
For Summer 2021, we will not be offering students the option to “mix and match” Summer I and Summer II programs. There could be too many factors at play with mandatory quarantines, testing requirements, or immigration restrictions. Therefore, if you hope to enroll in two sequential summer programs with SFS, your options are Kenya or the Turks & Caicos Islands.
Adjusted Refund Policy
In consideration of COVID-19, SFS has amended the refund policy for Summer 2021 programs. You can review the updated refund policy under the FAQ section on our COVID-19 Updates page.
Due to the cancellation of our Summer 2020 programs and our plan to run programs with fewer students, we encourage students to apply early for Summer 2021. Program space will be limited, and we anticipate many, if not most, programs to go on a waitlist.

Spend your summer earning credit and getting the hands-on learning and skill-building experiences of an internship, while also going off the beaten path and exploring the world. Study climate change issues facing communities and ecosystems, and contribute to a 40-year legacy of environmental stewardship. Get ready for muddy boots and dirt under your fingernails, because you’ll be out there doing science, not just talking about it in the classroom.
