Hello. I am currently a Junior in high school and I am looking to start learning Chinese over the summer. I would like the program to be at least four weeks longs. I don’t mind if it is immersion or not, but when I looked at Concordia and Middlebury, I was afraid that I might be too old to start. I don’t really want to be the oldest kid starting to learn Chinese. I liked the program at Stanford (though it was too expensive and I would rather the application wasn’t so long since I already have all this college work and ACT prep right now) and NMH. I was’t really interested in the minors or sports in NMH, but I liked the idea. I would be just as happy to just take Chinese. I would prefer to stay within the US. Any suggestions?
Thank you so much.
yeah, Chinese StarTalk program at Ole Miss Summer College for High School:

still time to apply and if your grades and SAT/ACT are high enough you could get a full scholarship.
also Ole Miss has one of only 12 Chinese Flagship programs in the whole country. I don’t think you can find anything better.
