Summer Session Begins: July 7, 2017 – August 31, 2017  

For the summer only, the semester will be 8 weeks long, but the class length will be 1 hour and 50 minutes. While the number of weeks will be reduced, the total number of hours of instruction will remain the same as our regular 10 week schedule. The reason for the modified schedule was in order to complete the session between the Fourth of July and Labor Day holidays. After the summer, we will revert back to our 10 week, 90 minute program. 

REGISTRATION WILL OPEN ON THURSDAY, JUNE 8th  (Those on the interest list will be contacted first). 

Registration Information:  We can only accept a limited number of students per class. Once the maximum number has been reach, registration will be closed. You may then choose to be added to the wait-list for next session. The past several semesters, we have completely filled our Korean Fundamentals and Level 1 classes. 

Registration Form:  All new and returning students must complete an application form each semester. Registration is not considered complete until payment has been made. 

Summer 2017 Schedule and Fees:  For the past several sessions, our Korean Fundamentals and Level 1 classes have reached maximum capacity. It is highly advised to register as soon as possible to secure your spot. Prices do not include book or $10 material fee.
