Apply now to study abroad in Taiwan

NORWALK — Cerritos College is now accepting applications for its study abroad program starting this fall in Taiwan.

The three-month internship takes place in Taipei City, Taiwan, where students will serve as teacher aides to teach English at elementary schools three days a week. Students will stay with a host family or in dormitories, take free Chinese language lessons, and participate in local cultural trips.

Additionally, students will take courses offered at the University of Taipei with tuition funded by the Taipei City government. The program runs from Sept. 25 through Dec. 15.

Current Cerritos College students and alumni who have completed degrees are eligible to apply. The application deadline is Aug. 30.
