Language/ study abroad program in Bowdoin?

<p>I just realized that the most important thing i’m looking for in my college selection is study abroad/language program!!</p>

<p>I am going to start learning Mandarin as soon as i’m done with this college application crap and hope to become something close to being Mandarin-fluent by the time I graduate from college. And also I really wish to study in China through something like exchange student program. </p>

<p>How are Bowdoin Mandarin classes?
Does it have any study abroad program?
And if you can, would you please compare its programs with those of other schools?</p>

<p>Thanks A LOT!</p>
