About W&M in Washington

The Washington Center is your campus in the City! Our staff works to connect current students with the 17,000 alumni in the Washington, DC area. One of the ways we help students form these relationships, and gain valuable experience in a field of their interests, is through our Study in DC academic and internship opportunities!

We are excited for our DC Semester Program, DC Summer Institutes, DC Winter Seminars and DC Summer Session students to share their experiences, site visits, the inside scoop on living in the District and the impact Study in DC has had on their academic and professional careers.
