through study in the Sultanate of Oman. Comprised of Americans and Omanis

of people from different cultures. CIL offers all three levels of Modern

Program in Arabic Language at the Yemen College of Middle Eastern Studies

The Yemen College of Middle Eastern Studies (YCMES) is a fully accredited,
non-profit college that provides students and scholars from around the
world the opportunity to develop a complex knowledge of the Arabic language
and the contemporary Middle East. Students can study at YCMES for 5, 10, or
15 weeks, or more -- programs are tailored to meet students' needs. Sanaa,
Yemen is an ideal location for language acquisition and cultural immersion.
Unlike many other Middle Eastern cities where English and/or French are
pervasive, Sanaa is one of the few remaining places in the world where
Arabic is spoken exclusively. In short, it is nearly impossible to remain
isolated in a Western bubble.
