Passion

Wherever your passions lie, Cornell's One Course At A Time block schedule provides unparalleled opportunities to pursue them.

Passionate about art? Devote a course block to creating the sculpture of your dreams. Does scientific discovery thrill you? Immerse yourself in a month-long experiment that breaks new ground. Immerse yourself in a new language, a style of literature, or the study of calculus.

And if your passion outgrows the college’s course listings, take it even further: design your own independent study, spend a block doing research, or pursue an internship. With OCAAT, there are no limits to what you can learn and do.

You can follow your passions outside the classroom, too. All Cornell classes end at 3 p.m. every day, leaving you free to spend the afternoons immersed in soccer, flute practice, community service, rock-climbing, or the consumption of excellent coffee.
