  ICLP has been offering a rigorous summer program to Flagship students since 2012. Over the years, Flagship students who received intensive language instruction at ICLP have found their speaking, listening, reading, and writing abilities to improve by at least one sub-level over the course of one summer.
  
  Founded in 1962 to train and develop the oral discursive ability of America's academic elite, ICLP has provided instruction to many alumni who serve in academia and government over the last half century. ICLP is situated on the Main Campus of the National Taiwan University in Taipei, offering Flagship students access to the NTU Main Library, Health Center, Sports Center, and other facilities in addition to ICLP facilities.
  
  By coming to ICLP to study, students will not only improve their Chinese ability significantly, but also enjoy Taiwan's abundant, diverse, and exquisite cultures. ICLP has formulated this program specially for Flagship students to provide them with the best study environment and an ideal living arrangement.

  COURSE STRUCTURE:
  Flagship students can expect to have 1 one-on-one class as well as 3 group classes of four students each day. Classes at ICLP emphasize oral practice, so students must spend adequate time preparing for and reviewing each lesson.
  
  In addition to attendance, preparation, and participation in class, criteria for assessing student performance will include daily dictation quizzes, weekly speeches, weekly exams, a final presentation, reports/reflections on guest lectures, and a 2,000-character academic report. Also, Flagship students are required to take part in the Language Mission Days and submit the designated assignments. Weekly consultation sessions are offered for students to seek advice on their learning or have more practice time with an ICLP teacher.
  
  Teaching materials, including textbooks and authentic cold-reading texts, will be determined according to the student's language proficiency level, as assessed through their placement test results. A list of the more commonly assigned textbooks at ICLP can be found on our ►Textbooks page.
  
  STUDENT TRANSCRIPTS:
  Credits earned will be determined by each student's home institution. ICLP will email an official copy of your transcript to your Flagship Center at the end of the program. If your Study Abroad or Registrar's Office requires an official copy as well, please feel free to request for one through our ►Transcript Request Form.
  
  HOUSING ARRANGEMENT:
  Students will be housed in double or triple occupancy rooms at ►Taipei Paradise, a serviced apartment complex close to ICLP. Amenities include a living room, kitchen (oven, microwave, refrigerator), separate washroom and bathroom, bed, bedding (mattress, blanket and pillow), desk, wardrobe, washer and dryer, TV, internet access, air-conditioner, hot water (available 24 hours), cleaning service (weekly). ►Click here to see a virtual tour
