Resources available during Winterim 2023, the interim period between fall and winter terms.
If you are traveling outside the United States, please monitor the CDC website for Travel Health Notices and updates on requirements for travel to and from the U.S.
International students on F-1 status planning to travel outside the country during the break should review the Winter Break Checklist for information on the federal government's travel policy and to confirm you have the documents required for return to the U.S.

A calendar of programs/events coordinated by campus and community partners is available at: http://dartgo.org/winterim-events (requires Dartmouth login to Google).
In addition to overall Winterim support, OPAL hosts several in-person and virtual programs for undergraduate students throughout Winterim, including game nights and a movie at the Nugget. Student Coordinators will coordinate casual meet-ups on a weekly basis. Programs will be listed on the Winterim Events Calendar as well as advertised on the Winterim GroupMe and OPAL Instagram (@dartmouth.opal).
House Communities plan to provide 1-2 programs over the winterim to promote wellbeing, connection, and access to some meals. Typical programs include game and movie nights, holiday dinners, and crafting programs. Houses may also take short trips to local attractions like museums, farms, or holiday markets. Any programs hosted by an individual House will be open to all undergraduate students regardless of their House affiliation. Stay tuned to email, and House social media channels for details!
