SUMMER IN MARYLAND PROGRAM

July 2 - July 29, 2009

The Summer in Maryland Program (SIM) works with the English Language Center at Towson University to provide an opportunity for students from other countries to come to the United States to improve their conversational English. They also learn about life and culture, and participate in campus life.

Highlights of the Summer in Maryland program include the following:

  • Intensive English language classes are taught by professional university faculty of the English Language Center. Students will attend daily classes, with a total of 60 hours of instruction, which encourages confidence while speaking English.


  • A diagnostic test of spoken English will be administered to help instructors meet the individual needs of students.


  • American students will meet with students to form conversational groups to practice conversation skills.


  • Students live on campus in university housing and have access to all facilities on campus. Housing is secure with entry cards and security personnel is available at all times.


  • Lunches are provided weekdays at Glen Dining Hall, where students can choose from a variety of menus and can eat all they would like.


  • A certificate of completion will be awarded at the graduation ceremony held at the end of the program.


  • Students will earn two credits transferred to their home institution from Towson University.



Outside of class, there are friends to meet and things to do on campus!
