Let’s Go
The pandemic taught us so many things and one is to seize the day. Study travel has always been open to the public, so grab your friends, neighbors, book club members, dog walker, or whoever is important to you (or is fun!), and join us on an educational adventure. We’ve got so many journeys ready for you and many more in the planning stages. Use the links to the right to get a sense of study travel.

Why St. Olaf?

“You just cannot top this leadership … The professors … get you to places you’d never know to go to yourself.”
“The diversity of the people on the trips is just great. There are a lot of St. Olaf ties, but not necessarily… we all have a good time.”
