The following is a list of courses and/or subject areas that have been confirmed by the host institution for this session. Please note, the host institution reserves the right to cancel or change courses without prior notice.
Language Requirements
Before your program begins, you will take a placement exam so that you can take language classes and electives with students at your same language level. When selecting an academic program, it is important that you are realistic about your language skills, keeping in mind that most foreign institutions hold higher standards for students in assessing language levels than you might expect at a US institution. Final language assessment will be determined by the host institution upon arrival in your destination city. Please review
CEA’s description of language levels
to give you a guideline of what level in which you may fit. CEA does not guarantee language placement or course selections based on this information.
*Subject areas with an asterisk indicate that the course has been associated with multiple subject areas. Please click on the course title to view additional subject areas and detailed course information.
