Winter Break

London FYE students need to make their own arrangements (at their own expense) for housing and meals over winter break. London FYE students cannot return to campus until the arrival date listed for the spring semester. If you need assistance with housing and meals over winter break, you should consider coming to campus instead of going to London for your first semester. Only students studying on the Saratoga Springs campus for the entire year (both fall and spring semesters) with a full-year housing contract can request housing over winter break.
