SRAS Summer Programs - apply by March 1st

[Lisa Horner]

Dear SEELANGers,
 
Note the deadline for SRAS summer programs is *March 1st*, 2009.
 
SRAS offers Russian as a Second Language (RSL) programs in 7 cities. 
The program is designed to deliver a solid curriculum to improve 
Russian language skills in grammar, vocabulary, comprehension, 
phonetics, reading, and speaking. These courses are for everyone - all 
levels from beginner to advanced, and our courses are open to anyone 
out of high school, not just current university students. This program 
is offered in the following 7 cities: Nizhny Novgorod, Novosibirsk, 
Irkutsk, Vladivostok, Bishkek, Moscow and St. Petersburg. Read more 
about the program here: http://sras.org/study_russian_abroad.
 
In addition to RSL programs, SRAS offers various summer Feature Study 
Abroad programs, which allow you to study topics in addition to 
language. This summer we offer the following programs:
 
Kyrgyz Summer Adventure: combines three weeks of intensive language 
study in Bishkek and one week of horse-trekking.
