[quote=Anonymous]I echo what PP said about the language programs -- our DC was selected and nervous about attending and loved it. There are 3 language academies at one location (Washington & Lee) - French, German & Spanish. They have events together, but each student can only speak their assigned language. DC got into several good schools across the country (ended up choosing UVA, which was about middle of the schools based on rankings). The students also have to give up their cell phones/computers for the experience. It was very fun at the end when they were finally allowed to speak English again -- none of them knew what each other sounded like when speaking English. DC was so immersed that it was an effort to relearn speaking in English for a couple of days. A great experience and I imagine the other academies are similar in their categories.[/quote]
