Immerse yourself in the Spanish language and Mexican culture on a 16-day intensive program in Cuernavaca, Mexico, with Tri-County Technical College. You will also take classes before going to and upon returning from Mexico to complete class requirements. Program dates in Mexico are July 5 through July 20, 2008. There will be three class meetings upon return to the U.S.

What will I do in Mexico?
You will have the experience of a lifetime! During the day, you will learn Spanish through culture, conversation and grammar classes at a language institute. Language classes are small, with less than ten students in each class. You and another student will stay with a Mexican host family and learn much sharing breakfast and lunch and your experiences with them. You will also have the opportunity to visit fascinating museums, impressive archaeological sites and beautiful nearby cities and towns with the group.

Can I earn credit for 102 in just two weeks?!
Not exactly… in addition to the classes in Mexico, you will have classes at Tri-County before leaving for Mexico and when you get back.

Do I register for 102 during early registration?
Applications are due February 15, 2008. You will be notified of your acceptance February 25 and then you can register for the course.

Will I need to buy a book?
Yes, you will use the Aventuras book, workbook and supersite.

Will all students going to Mexico cover the same material?
No, some students will be enrolled in Spanish 204, Spanish in a Cross-Cultural Context, and they will cover different material than in 102.

How do I sign up?
Don't wait! Download your application package. The application deadline is Friday, February 15, 2008.
