Originally known as the “Stanford of Britain” due to the fact that in its original days California’s own Stanford offered study abroad courses in its scenic Grantham, England, Harlaxton College has both a prestigious and bright past, present and future. Those attending Harlaxton College enjoy the best in location, education, and summation of what the college experience truly means.
Harlaxton College – England
Nestled in the market town of Grantham, Harlaxton College is located conveniently near both Lincoln as well as Nottingham. Both A1 and the River Witham border it. Travel to and from Grantham is convenient due to the East Coast Main Line being nearby. The lush rolling hills only further the attraction and beauty of the town.
Campus
What originally was Harlaxton Manor, which served as almost an education outpost for many universities throughout the world, became Harlaxton Study Centre in 1971. Soon rising to the forefront of education, after being bought by the University of Evansville, Indiana, Harlaxton Study Centre became Harlaxton College and its unique programs of travel and diversity round out students’ college experiences.
The formal gardens on the grounds are beautiful, filled with such treasures as a Dutch canal and English landscape walks. There are also two locations for students to eat on campus, The Refectory and The Bistro. The Bistro is a known gathering place for students to share poems, music, and a drink while enjoying campus life. In addition, students may wish to spend time at the Library, which has state of the art online research resources and over 22,000 volumes.
Academics
Harlaxton College prides itself in being one of the top study abroad destinations. Both permanent and visiting faculty teach all typical college majors. Students attend classes for 15 weeks, which allows them to not only receive a top of the line education but also acclimate to the culture around them. Both regular semester and summer school classes are available. Students may view the curriculum for each to decide which semester is best for them to study abroad in regards to classes offered.
Academic research is also conducted on campus, on topics ranging from British interpretation of national identity to the meaning of the compositions of renowned 17th century British composer William Byrd. An Honors program is also available for interested students who wish to attend seminars and immerse themselves in British history and take advantage of cultural resources available to learn via case studies and experiences.
Centre for British Studies
However, Harlaxton College prides itself in being the home of the Centre for British Studies. Lectures, classes, and interactive events encourage and allow students to learn British history, dating all the way back from Roman rule right up to modern day. The faculty of the Centre for British Studies also conduct various research undertakings regarding various topics, from solving mysteries in British history to examining the details of the lives of some of the best known British historical figures.
Tuition
Studying abroad becomes an option for students of all incomes because Harlaxton College truly represents their unofficial motto of “Learning: All Together.” Both financial aid and scholarships are available to University of Evansville students as well as those who attend full time partner colleges. Guest students may not apply for these options, but they may choose to apply their scholarship or financial aid at their school to the Harlaxton College study abroad program.
Excluding airfare, texts, and personal expenses, estimated at around $5,000 at most, tuition, room, and board for University of Evansville students was $17,713 for the 2009-2010 matriculation. Those not attending University of Evansville may contact their offices for further information.
