Subject:American ME Institute's Summer program in Amman

Good Morning,
My name is Kayla Elias, and I am an intern for the American Middle East
Institute's Summer Language Institute.    We are looking for motivated
students who are interested in participating in a program this summer
through our institute to the beautiful country of Oman.  The program is
worth 4 college credits and is 6 weeks long.

Our program is the only true exchange program available as of now.  The
Omani Ministry of Education and Ministry of Higher Education sends us 15
Omani students. We spend three weeks at Washington and Jefferson College in
Pennsylvania with the 15 American and 15 Omani students.  We show them what
daily life in America is like, and participate in daily outings and
cultural activities, then after three weeks, they take us back to Oman and
we get to experience the typical life of an Omani.

Each American student is paired with an Omani student of the same age and
gender.  They room together and become language partners.  The Omanis are
learning English, while the Americans learn Arabic.  All students must
abide by a strict language pact for the entire duration of the program.

We do offer scholarships!

Below is our website as well as the email of the Director of Operations,
Maria Hastings.
I have also attached our flyer and the 2013 Program Application.

Any promotion of our program among your students would be tremendously
appreciated.

Please feel free to contact me, or have your students contact me with any
questions or concerns.
