All courses are equivalent to one year of college-level language
instruction. An instructional staff chosen for its experience,
enthusiasm, and commitment to language teaching ensures the high
academic quality of Pitt's SLI program. Daily contact with instructors,
both in class and out, and the use of native speakers in all sections
create an environment conducive to effective language acquisition. All
programs include extracurricular activities such as film viewing,
singing, cooking classes and cultural lectures. The study abroad
programs include excursions and cultural programming in the targeted
country. 

All applicants may apply for the various scholarships that the SLI has
available. Over 90 per cent of applicants receive partial or full
funding from sources including FLAS fellowships, SSRC fellowships for
advanced Russian, and SLI tuition scholarships.
