Yale faculty and staff have approved the following programs for Light Fellows to pursue intensive Chinese language study. These sites were selected for their academic rigor immersive learning environments but all have their own unique characteristics. Due to the current status of border restrictions relating to COVID-19, some programs are still running virtually or are suspended until further notice. Please note that Light Fellows have not been enter into mainland China programs after March 2020.
All Light-Fellowship approved programs that are eligible for credit are considered Non-Yale Study Abroad programs and the International Study Award and Yale Financial Aid may be applied to participation in these programs.
