Hi All,
Many Universities in the United States and Canada offer Intensive short term language
courses during the summer semester. These range anywhere from 3-8 weeks and provide
accelerated learning opportunities for working professionals. These intensives are
awesome because they are much more fast paced, often include less studied languages
(some of which even provide fellowships), and provide an opportunity to meet other
individuals whom have similar interests. Studying intensively domestically while not as
culturally enriching as full immersion is generally more practical and easier to plan,
and provides one the opportunity to see other parts of the country. I was hoping that
we could compile a list of
intensive courses in the United States. Here's my proposed format:
Language(s)
City/Sate
University
Level
