HIAS intensive summer program can be either for 7 or 9 weeks. The program concentrates on Modern Standard Arabic as well as on Egyptian Colloquial Arabic. This program is 20 contact class hours per week; i.e., a total of either 140 or 180 hrs. of language/culture instruction. </SPAN></FONT></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 10px/normal Arial; min-height: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><BR></SPAN></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial" size="2"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 10px;">The language proficiency level will be assessed in a placement test after the students arrive in Cairo. Those who are not complete beginners can choose one or two elective content courses out of the following: Modern or classical Arabic literature, Arab & Islamic history, Islamic Architecture, calligraphy, oriental music, tajweed al Qur'aan, or Islamic philosophy. Beginners can complete the 20 hours per week by MSA & ECA.</SPAN></FONT></DIV><P style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial" size="2"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 10px;"> </SPAN></FONT></P><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial" size="2"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 10px;">HIAS organizes three trips- free of charge- to tourist sites in Cairo during the study term and may help in finding suitable accommodation for its students. Students can still cut down the housing expenses if two or three share one apartment. Living in Cairo is not as expensive as in US or Europe.</SPAN></FONT></DIV><P style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial" size="2"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 10px;"> </SPAN></FONT></P><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial" size="2"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 10px;">Groups of three or more may get reduced tuition fees. Group prices will be a little less than $10 per every contact class hour in the program; and tutor tailored individual rates will be around $13.5/hr.
