Spring 2013: Expanded foreign language course offerings at the Downtown, Mission, Ocean, and Chinatown/North Beach Campuses

Good news for Spring 2013!  There will be expanded offerings of foreign language courses at the ever-popular Downtown Campus, the Mission Campus, the main Ocean Campus, and the brand new Chinatown/North Beach Campus, where (tentatively), Chinese, Japanese and Spanish classes will be offered. Classes will no longer be offered at the Castro Campus (Everett Middle School).  Check back here or go to the Foreign Language Department website toward the end of October for details and class schedules.  

A Message to Students from the Foreign Language Department Chair

There has been a lot of news in the press about City College, but it is important to know that the Foreign Language Department is preparing a full spring class schedule for you to begin mid-January.  That schedule will be online by mid-November and offer you a wide range of classes, many not available at other community colleges.  Fees will remain the same at $46 per unit.  We look forward to having you with us again in the spring semester!

• Are you interested in world cultures and languages?
• Would you like to study in Africa, Asia, Central & Eastern Europe, Eurasia, Latin America, or in the Middle East?
