Sounds like you're in college? Go to your campus study abroad office, sometimes called International Education or something like that. They'll set you up. It may be too late to go this summer, but just go to the office and see what there is. Or check out these websites:\nhttp://www.studyabroad.com/\nhttp://www.ciee.org/

I found the 8-CD course by Michel Thomas to be fantastic. From zero to conversational Spanish in a week - just playing the CDs in the car on my way to and from work.\n\nEven the 2-CD basic course gives you enough to get by on holiday (with a bit of arm-waving, pointing and English thrown in)\n\nHe also does German, French, Italian,...

There are several web directories around....try the one at www.IAOMAS.org .  You might be able to get yourself two free weeks at any of the schools listed there.

It is probably looking for students that know the difference between "coarses" and "courses".  Attention to detail is important when presenting one's self to premier universities.

wow! That's terrific. I will add what I know, but I'm sure others will have more info for you.\n\nFirst, your program coordinator is going to have the practical info for you. S/He will be able to tell you about visas, passports, insurance, lodging, and the like. As to groceries, I would suggest an intensive internet search of the area(s) you'll be in. My daughter is going to Europe for 13 days next summer and we started with just googling the cities she'll be in. We also googled some of the cultural aspects, things like local slang and local food. Next we hit the city library for background on the cities. \n\nItaly is a unique place, and not always a comfortable place for American women. I would talk specifically to American women who have visited and/or lived in Italy. Your college is a great place to find those, and also the internet.\n\nI would suggest, just as a practical piece of advice, get a solid grasp on the local lingo and the money. Those two things will take a lot of time to master and you could use that time better there than figuring all that out. So master those things while you're still here.\n\nGood luck and I hope you have a terrific year!

I studied abroad for a month when I was in college.  I didn't know until right now that it was through an AIFS program.  At any rate, it was a very valuable experience, especially if you've never left the country before.  I went to London and learned a lot.  Much of my learning experiences were more cultural than anything I learned in class.  If you have the opportunity and can afford to go abroad, it is definitely worth it.  My experience nearly five years ago and its something that is very vivid in my memory and I will never forget it.  Have fun!

How about...the history of small countries in Southeast Asia?  Or the pleasures of bicycling?  The Punic Wars?  Canadians' ideas about the US?  Life in Japan?  Unique wildlife of Australia?  Modern-day piracy in the Straits of Malacca?\nThat's all I can think of in 1 1/2 minutes.

Most short courses seem to run 4-6 weeks, but I did find that here were some language courses which were 3 weeks.\n\nEnglish language courses of 3 weeks and 6 weeks (July & August). General English with options to add business English, English for travel or English for academic purposes\nThere was this class which is only two weeks onsite.\n\n4 Week TESOL – Leeds, Nantwich, Flexible TESOL (70 hours distance learning + 2 weeks onsite)

Most universities offer Study Abroad programs, some short and long term. I have been to Costa Rica and will be going to Dominican Republic this summer. (I have a minor in International Development) \nI wouldn't suggest degrees online, in my opinion it takes away from the whole class experience which I find to be one of the better learning tools. I don't know what it is you  are trying to pursue but get that together in your head and then research the job outlook, what kind of jobs you could/would land with the degree you choose and if your unsure of the degree but know the type of job you want to do, research the qualifications of the job(s) you like to help you get a better sense of the road you should be travelling. Good Luck!

Some community collleges offer Mandarin.  I took it.  It was fun.  If the regular semester is too long, perhaps you can take an accelerated course or a summer course.  Those usually run faster/shorter...
