Closing Ceremony

Families and friends are invited to join us from 10:30am to 12:30pm. Flights should be scheduled no earlier than 3pm.

Closed Weekends at CITYterm are designed to help us to create our integrated life of living and learning together. On a closed weekend, we expect students to stay in the dormitory on both Friday and Saturday nights and use their open time on Saturday evening and Sunday to explore New York City with their CITYterm friends. On a typical Open Weekend, students are free, assuming they have parental and faculty permission, to leave CITYterm after our Saturday afternoon programming and return to the dormitory by dinner on Sunday.

Please note that CITYterm is a six day per week program. Therefore, Saturday Field Classes in the cityare a mandatory part of the curriculum. Weekends begin after class on Saturday at 4:00pm. In order to preserve as many class days as possible, CITYterm asks that parents do not schedule travel that interferes with the class schedule. We also ask that students register for the SATs at The Masters School (test center 33360) or Dobbs Ferry High School (test center 33358) on November 6 only. Please call the office if you have questions about scheduling the ACT. We also ask that parents arrange travel plans to honor the class schedule.
