Students can attend one course per session and may attend up to two (2) sessions. Those who are interested in applying to more than one two-week session must apply by March 11, 2025. Applications for the two-week in-person courses will be reviewed on a rolling basis.

International students (i.e., students who are not citizens or permanent residents of the United States) should be aware that acceptance in the Two-Week Non-Credit Courses does not constitute the basis for securing a student visa. Boston College does not issue student visas for non-credit programs. International students should enter the United States in a visitor status instead of F-1 student status. For citizens of countries requiring a visa to enter the U.S., participants should obtain a B-2 鈥淰isitor for Pleasure鈥 visa to come to the U.S., which allows you to engage in tourist-related plans as well as to participate in these programs. Citizens of countries who enjoy the benefits of the Visa Waiver Program should enter the U.S. in WT 鈥淲aiver Tourist鈥 status, which permits the same activity. Please see the for more information.听
