About this Program
Take your Arabic to the next level in Amman, the most populous city of Jordan and the country's economic, political, and cultural center. Designed for those with advanced language skills in Arabic, CIEE Amman staff provide students with a combination of language, history, and literature courses, entirely taught in Arabic. You'll be asked to sign a language commitment when enrolling in the program, agreeing only to speak Arabic in your classes to encourage complete language and cultural acquisition. Your commitment to speaking fluent Arabic will help you improve and master your Modern Standard Arabic and Colloquial Jordanian language skills. In addition to language immersion, you can expect your courses to be complemented with co-curricular activities and excursions organized by CIEE beyond the city center of Amman to enhance classroom learning and provide intercultural understanding and community engagement.

Housing at Seattle University
Moving can be both costly and stressful, but careful planning can help minimize both. Start by creating a housing plan for before and after your study abroad experience to avoid the pressure of continuing to pay for rent at home. Program fees typically cover housing abroad, so if you expect to incur additional domestic rent expenses, be sure to include these in your budget. If possible, consider staying with family or friends temporarily before you depart or when you return to save on costs.
Housing Residence Life
Education Abroad typically recommends considering Seattle University on-campus housing for when students return from their programs, as Housing Residence Life staff are able to support students in securing housing, while adhering to student preferenceas best as they can.
