Immediately following CLI summer intensive courses, students have the opportunity to travel with their classmates to the country they have been studying.

The 3-week Summer Study Abroad programs combine intensive language with an extensive program of cultural events and hands-on linguistic experience. Some offer peer tutoring and joint projects with native speakers. Where this option is available, CLI participants get in touch with their tutors and begin crafting their projects during the 8-week CLI intensive class, then work face-to-face with their peer partner in country once they arrive there.

CLI short-term summer study abroad programs are open to non-CLI students with the requisite language skills.
