What to Expect in Greece

Studying abroad in Greece is paradise for history buffs—the birthplace of theater, politics, philosophy, and the Olympic Games.

Greece has become one of the top 10 study abroad destinations for U.S. students in the past five years, according to the Institute of International Education (IIE), and it’s easy to see why. You’ll visit the “cradle of Western civilization,” witness some of the greatest historic sites such as the Acropolis and Parthenon, eat well (after all, the Mediterranean diet is known the world over), and have the option of taking a short ferry ride to nearby islands on your own time.

When you study abroad, Greece becomes your classroom. Our programs offer you the opportunity to explore not only your host city, but to live like a real Athenian student on campus at American College of Greece.

Explore archaeological wonders and modern cultural hubs in Greece's capital city. With two summer program options offered in Athens, IES Abroad is here to help you have the experience of a lifetime.
