Cancellation of 2022 Summer Immersion Program.
We regret to inform you that we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2022 Summer Immersion Program.
We did not make this decision lightly, but with the current health situation due the spread of the COVID-19 Omicron variant, we prefer to take a cautious approach. As always, the health and well-being of our participants and staff are top priorities. We hope you’ll understand that we don’t want to take any risks in this regard.
