Location, Facilities, Housing


Location    
Located about 20 km north of the city-center of Athens, in the elegant suburb of Kastri, the Conference and Training Center of the Agricultural Bank of Greece offers first class facilities to New York College Study Abroad Program students. The Center has been constructed and equipped with the financial and technical support of the European Union to provide appropriate infrastructure for quality education and training
 
Kastri is just a few minutes away from the most exclusive northern suburb of Kifisia. This is a quiet, safe residential area with posh villas, restaurants, cafes, clubs, athletic centers, and designer boutiques. It offers access to the city center and the port of Pireaus through the city’s metro system.
The temperature is always somewhat cooler than downtown Athens, providing a pleasant oasis in the Greek summer. Living and studying at our leased facilities at Kastri, will give you the exclusive opportunity to enjoy your stay and make the most of your time during weekdays.
   
The Program runs over a period of five weeks, with four days of classes during the week. Extracurricular activities, such as lectures and workshops, tours and excursions will take place during the weekdays and the weekends. Undergraduate students must enroll for a maximum of two courses, and MBA students for one course.
   
Study Abroad Program students have the opportunity to stay in the hotel rooms located in the same complex of facilities, where their classes are held.
