I’m a semi finalist for arabic summer!!!

DS is a semifinalist for Russian Summer!!!

semifinalist for korean summer!

Congrats y’all! I wasn’t accepted (Korean summer), but I still have 1-2 more years to apply. Does anyone have any tips for improving my application for next year?

My daughter is a semifinalist for Arabic summer. Would love to connect with other parents.

I am another semifinalist and was wondering is if anyone knew the chance of moving beyond semis and just general interview tips? thanks!!

Congratulations to everyone who got in! And to those who didn’t, there’s always next year with CLS!

DD is a semifinalist for Arabic Summer.

Does anyone know where the most advanced students are sent for the Chinese summer program? (Or where they have been sent in the past?) Semi-Finalist for China summer, thinking about where I could end up if chosen.
Thanks!

Does anyone ever get accepted on their first try? Seems like a lot of finalists were previously rejected after having reached semi finals. Thanks.

@allla15 my son was accepted on his first try (summer 2017 China)

@3scoutsmom Where did your son go? Was he one of the more advanced Chinese speakers or novice? Thanks!

He had taken up to Chinese 3 in highschool (no other Chinese experience) he went to XIAMEN, China.

Hi! I’m also a semi finalist. I was wondering you got added/know how to get added to the Facebook semifinalist group chat?
