LANGUAGE SCHOOL > ACADEMIC CALENDAR
The academic program of the Language School operates four cycles, all year round, for its adult and junior EFL programs, as well as for the Spanish as a second language program.
The Playful Learning Program for children offers three cycles per year, and an intensive English course for new students. This course is offered during the summer recess.
The estimated duration of these cycles is as follows:
• First cycle: From the first week of January to the last week of March.
• Second cycle: From the beginning of April to the third or fourth week of June.
• Third cycle: From the first week of July until the first week of September.
• Fourth cycle: From the third week of September until the second week of December.
These are approximate dates, and they can vary depending on the holidays of the country, both religious and lay.
The Language School closes the last two weeks of December, and remains closed until the first week of January. It also closes on certain holidays whose date of celebration can change, American and Dominican, religious and lay, such as Easter Week and Thanksgiving
