Applications for Directed Independent Language Study (DILS) are currently being accepted for language study in the 2006 spring semester.
The deadline for applications is Monday, Nov. 28. For additional information about DILS and for application forms, interested students should consult the website at www.cls.yale.edu/dils or send inquiries to dils@yale.edu.

Only those applications will be approved for which there are adequate materials, language partners and testing can be arranged.
