Overview
 The Semester in Cyprus is a traditional full-immersion semester based in Nicosia, the beautiful and modern capital of Cyprus. In addition to the academic coursework, students participate in a series of educational trips and cultural excursions within Cyprus.
Students can select from hundreds of courses across 64 accredited degree programs offered each semester at Intercollege, the largest private college in Cyprus, and can completely customize their course curriculum.
A jewel of a Mediterranean island and the birthplace of Aphrodite, Cyprus combines a rich cultural and archaeological heritage with great natural beauty and a welcoming population. Today, Cyprus is a stable, economically-advanced member of the European Union and provides an interesting contrast between its westernized cities and ultra-modern beach resorts that exist side-by-side with traditional mountain villages and monasteries with ancient customs and traditions.
