W E L C O M E

From the musical Oliver come the lyrics, “consider yourself at home, consider yourself part of the family…”

This is exactly the invitation we would like to extend to every member of the Fairbanks community when thinking about UAF this summer.

Take a look at all that is being offered and plan to come on campus and be a part of the UAF family. There is a vast array of credit courses, non-credit courses, children’s camps, lectures, concerts, Fairbanks Shakespeare Theater productions, UA Museum of the North exhibits and Fairbanks Summer Arts Festival performances. At least 60 lectures and concerts are FREE. And after 5 p.m., even parking is FREE. Please note that financial aid is available for children attending our Kids Camps.

For those who like to venture out of Fairbanks into the wilderness we have eleven field courses. And for those who would like to visit another part of the world, there are educational travel programs to Ireland, Cuba, and Bali.

The bottom line is: There’s lots to do at UAF this coming summer and we want you and your family to be a part of it. If you have any suggestions on how we can make it even better, do not hesitate to give us a call. We look forward to sharing this summer with you here at UAF.
