a 2.6 average are eligible, regardless of

Students will take regular university
courses as well as courses offered by the

fulfillment of the requirements of their
home school. Intensive language training
is carried on throughout the program,

Vienna also offer courses in English.

Three different programs, for a
summer, for a semester, and for a full
year, are open to University students.
Prices range from $475 for the summer
program to $3,490 for the full year.
