The University of Atlantia is dedicated to the advancement of teaching in the Kingdom of Atlantia, SCA, Inc. Degrees presented by the University of Atlantia are not awards of the Society for Creative Anachronism or any of its branches and do not convey SCA precedence. We are therefore pleased to be able to offer degrees to qualifying students and faculty across the Knowne World.
There are two to three University sessions each year. If you are interested in hosting a University, please refer to our bid guidelines.
For more details on teaching classes, check out the page on Teaching at University.It is with great regret that I must announce that the backup site for the in-person session of June University has fallen through. The church was not able to arrange for the required staff member to be on site when we would be there.
At this point, there is not enough time to find another suitable site, so we are going to have to make both days of the session on line.
For those of you who are scheduled to teach classes, please email the Registrar, Maestra Nicolosa (registrar@university.atlantia.sca.org) and let her know if you would be able and willing to teach your class on line, and whether you will need a Teaching Assistant (TA).
I apologize for this late notice, and appreciate your patience. I want to thank all of those who have worked so hard to try to make this switch to a new site work, particularly Patronne Murienne, and the people of Windmaster’s Hill, who have done an amazing amount of work to try to bring this together. Unfortunately, because of circumstances that were beyond our control, it just didn’t work out.
However, because of our experience in holding on line sessions, both days of June University will go on, with many fabulous classes, and we will gather in person again in September.

A couple of changes to share about the in-person session on June 13.
Patronne Murienne has stepped in as event steward, and we've also changed sites. The in-person Summer University sessions will be held at Duke Memorial UMC in Durham, NC, just a short drive from the original site (504 W Chapel Hill St, Durham, NC 27701). The date is still Saturday, June 13. The online session will still take place on Sunday, June 14, unchanged.
The event is absolutely still happening and it's going to be great. Classes, teachers, the whole experience... still on track. If you've already registered to teach, your spot is good. Class registration is now open. The event announcement and University web site will be updated shortly with additional site details.
