<p>If you really want to immerse yourself in Finnish, I highly recommend looking at schools in Michigan and Minnesota.</p>

<p>Scandinavian
GSD is one of the few departments in the Unitied States to teach four modern Nordic languages from a beginning to an advanced level, as well as Old Icelandic language and medieval Icelandic literature, and a full range of Scandinavian literature and culture courses.</p>
<p>The Scandinavian Languages & Finnish B.A. aims to provide students strong skills in a foreign language, to introduce them to methodologies of linguistic and literary analysis, and to develop intercultural understanding.</p>
<p>In addition to the major, there are minors in Danish, Finnish, Norwegian, and Swedish.</p>

<p>Oh I was going to say “Minnesota and Washington!” but someone beat me to it. Finnish is brutal for us English-speakers, you know - way harder than, say, Swedish.</p>
<p>Thanks guys
Yeah my whole family is from MI’s upper peninsula and I learn it every summer only to get rusty again…</p>

<p>That is weird considering Finnish is not a Germanic language. In fact, it isn’t even an Indo-European language.</p>

<p>Bruno, I know - it is weird. I don’t think they have any sort of Uralic department though, unfortunately.</p>
