Wroxton College’s teaching methods and academic personnel are chosen to give students the very best British educational experience. Courses are taught by the lecture and tutorial method employed in British universities. We find that tutorials provide an intimate environment where the exchange of ideas is valued more than the mere transmission of information. A wide range of courses are available with subjects including literature, theatre, acting, history, political science, art history, communications, astronomy, hospitality, business, sociology, psychology and creative writing.

Our Spring and Fall semesters are 15 weeks long and students typically take four classes, though they can take more or fewer classes if they prefer. The class sizes are small allowing for close and memorable relationships with the highly qualified British faculty. All of our students take the interdisciplinary three credit program, The Anatomy of Contemporary Britain (INTER 3430).
Independent Studies
The academic environment of Wroxton is well-suited to cater to students who wish to pursue an independent study within an area of expertise of our Faculty.
Recent independent studies undertaken by students at Wroxton include:
Business Ethics, Social Policy in Britain, The British Judicial System, The First World War, Watercolour Painting, and Poetry.
Independent Study may be pursued with advance approval by the Wroxton College Dean, the student’s academic advisor, and the home institution’s Study Abroad Programs Office.
Wroxton College continues to meet its founding vision of an intellectual community, cloistered in an idyllic setting, and housed in a remarkably beautiful, modernized 17th-century manor house.
