For historians who wish to gain competency in Latin, the Summer Latin Institute at the University of Virginia offers an intensive program from June 14 to August 13, which will prepare diligent students to read Latin at an intermediate to advanced college level after successful completion. No previous knowledge of Latin is required. A dedicated faculty of five instructors provides six hours of formal instruction each day and supplementary tutoring sessions each evening. Undergraduate, graduate, and advanced high school students are welcome to apply. Students can earn 12 credit hours through UVa, or they may choose a non-credit option, which reduces the tuition for graduate students and non-Virginia residents.
