Most of our villagers attend for the entire four-week credit session with the rare occasion of an early departure. If this is something that occurs, we work with you and the school to determine appropriate amount of credit earned at time of departure.

Scholarships are available for summer overnight programs. See our Scholarship page for more information.

Your high school credit teachers will be a mix of classroom teachers, native speakers and recent graduates with significant experience abroad. Many counselors are also former villagers. Each village has a core team of credit teachers and a credit facilitator. They work alongside the entire staff to create an exciting and enriching program that interacts with the two-week and other language program participants while they are in session. Your credit villager will interact with many of the staff, some who focus on other parts of the Language Village immersive experience such as at the bank, store, waterfront, arts and crafts area and sports. Your credit villager can be expected to be engaged in the language by staff trained to respond to learners in order to guide them in the learning process.
