In addition to fifteen-week academic sessions, the English Language Institute offers customized summer language programs for groups of eight students or more. Such programs offer students the opportunity to come to UNCP's historic campus and take courses that suit their academic and professional needs. If you are a university or high-school administrator who is interested in bringing a group of students to UNCP, please contact Janna Fahmy at Janna.Fahmy@uncp.edu to discuss the possibility of creating a short-term program for your students.
