CET Harbin will return in Summer 2025! 

This truly immersive program features instruction for intermediate to high advanced language levels and housing with a Chinese roommate. This program implements a full-time language pledge. Harbin is an immersive location with a rich history. Specialized language learning through a self-designed one-on-one independent study is also unique to CET-Harbin.

This program would be a great fit for someone who is looking for an environment with less foreign students. Less western presence and entertainment means CET-Harbin students tend to lead a more immersive Chinese experience, supported by local roommates. Students who are considering this program are encouraged to do some research on the history and culture of Harbin. 

Program Application Notes:

  • CET accepts the Light Fellowship Language Evaluation as a substitute for one letter of recommendation from a language instructor. You do not need to send a recommendation request. The Light Fellowship office will send the language evaluation to the program as long as you indicated your intention to apply on your Light Fellowship application.
  • Study Abroad Office Recommendation: Please send the electronic form request to kripa.bhagat@yale.edu

CET Staff will be holding an on-campus information session for Chinese programs on Tuesday, October 22nd at 2:30pm - 3:30pm at 55 Whitney Ave. 3rd Fl. Rm. 305.
