Summer Language Institutes (SLI)

The Summer Language Institutes are carefully tailored language programs of study in Chinese, Korean or Russian. Arabic and Japanese programs are no longer being offered for summer 2025.

SLI academics are challenging and thoroughly rewarding. By successfully completing this 7-week summer session, SLI participants earn eight academic credit hours to fulfill the 1001-1002 foreign language required for most bachelor’s degrees at ̨��swag.

SLI activities are engaging and fun, with an emphasis on learning the target language along with its related cultures.

Our Commitment To Our Students, Faculty, And Staff

At the University of North Georgia, we deeply value and uphold the cherished right of every American to freely express themselves. It is a hallmark of our history, our tradition, and permeates our culture. As a distinguished Senior Military College, with a legacy spanning over 150 years, we take great pride in our role of cultivating leaders who tirelessly defend these fundamental freedoms for all citizens. The legacy of our graduates in this regard is second to none.

As campus leaders, our primary responsibility is to cultivate an academic environment that ensures this exchange of ideas and the safety of our community. Across all five campuses, we are committed to fostering a welcoming atmosphere where individuals feel empowered to freely express themselves and engage in exploration and learning. However, it is essential that these rights are exercised in a manner that upholds our academic mission, preserves the safety of all, and is in accordance with our institutional policies, without unlawful behavior. This means breaking the law, harassment, intimidation, trespassing, violence, and other criminal acts will not be tolerated at the University of North Georgia.

Together, let's uphold the principles of respect, understanding, and civility as we equip our students to walk toward their purpose.

Bold Forward!
