We believe the city can become whatever you want it to be. In order to make that sentiment a reality, every Chicago Center student completes an intensive two-week orientation schedule. In those two weeks, you will explore Hyde Park (your new home), learn how to navigate the entire city on public transportation, develop street smarts and complete a safety workshop, visit internationally recognized museums, attend neighborhood tours, and begin to understand the layout of Chicago and its many communities. In just two weeks, Chicago will start to feel like home!
