Regular Italian Language Courses
Quarter 2 (March 31st - June 28th, 2025)

May 26th-31st Memorial Day pause week

How to Read Our Course Levels

Our Italian courses are structured from beginner to advanced, and each course code tells you where it fits in your learning journey.

  • The first three numbers (like 101, 202, 304) show the level.

    • 100s = Beginner

    • 200s = Lower Intermediate

    • 300s = Upper Intermediate

    • 400s = Advanced

  • The number after the dot (like .1 or .2) shows the session.

    • Example: 101.1 and 101.2 are the same course, just offered at different times.

Each step builds on the one before it. For example:

101 → 102 → 103 → 104 → 105
Then you move on to 201, and so on!

If you plan to enroll in any course above a 101 level as a new student, it’s mandatory to take a Placement Test before enrolling in a class. 
The cost of the Placement Test will be deducted from the cost of the tuition.
