*Program Announcement*

The National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations is announcing a new Study  
Abroad Program, the Summer in Yemen Program. It is an Arabic intensive  
program at the Yemen Language Center in Sana’a. Students will also take  
an interdisciplinary class on general Arab culture, history, politics,  
etc. The Arabic intensive class is 4 hours a day for 6 weeks, and the  
cultural component consists of at least 120 contact hours through  
lectures from professors at the University of Sana’a and weekend trips  
in the region. The program will conclude with a week long furlough  
through North and South Yemen. The institute has transfer agreements  
with many American universities, and the program is generally  
equivalent to 6 Arabic language credits and 3-6 credits for the  
interdisciplinary class, depend upon your home university’s transfer  
policies. The institution will offer all levels of instruction, from  
beginner to advanced classes.

The program fee for 7 weeks, including all housing, international  
flights, 2 meals a day, tuition, and travel in Yemen, is $4250. The  
Program will start approximately June 1, and students will return July  
21. The registration deadline is May 1.
