PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

SAI semester students at NABA are embarking upon a unique and intellectually rigorous adventure. Students have the choice of selecting one Subject Intensive Program (15 credits) or choosing courses from within multiple disciplines to create a Free Elective Program (up to 18 credits).

Program costs can be found here: Fall 2012 Spring 2013

Subjective Intensive Program: Each Subject Intensive program has been designed with the goal of maximizing the student experience; both in terms of providing framework for academic inquiry, as well as offering each student the opportunity to work under the mentorship of leading industry professionals.

Free Elective Program: This provides students with the greatest flexibility to choose freely from course offerings and elect courses based on academic needs and  career interests. These courses fulfill  a combination of major, minor, and elective credits for the student, based on academic approval from their home institution.
