The School of Modern Languages is proud to offer an interactive online course environment in Chinese (NEW!), Japanese, and Russian. This program is supported by a grant from the U.S. Department of Defense's National Security Education Program (NSEP) awarded to the University System of Georgia’s Office of International Education.
If you are seeking academic credit for the online courses, you can go to Online Application to get started. On this page, you will be asked to create your account, fill out an online application form to become a transient/special student and receive further instruction on mailing "On-Line Language Applicant Permission Form" signed by the registrar of your home institution and official transcript(s).
All enrollment-related questions can be directed to Dr. Masato Kikuchi.
If you are not a student or graduated from a college/university in the past, you can enroll through Professional Education of DLPE if spaces are available. On this page, select "Foreign Languages" under "Subjects" (no credits can be obtained through this program, and no overload is permitted).
Unfortunately, high school students cannot earn high school or college credit from GT for this program. (If you successfully complete the course, Professional Education can send a letter stating your grade for the course to your high school upon request. However, such a letter is not an official transcript from GT.) High school students not interested in earning academic credit may register through Professional Education.
Transient or Special Students who seek academic credit must apply by the following dates:
Non-academic credit students must apply directly to Professional Education by 5:00pm on Wednesday of the first week of the semester. Current Georgia Tech Students do not need an application.
