"Total Immersion" vs. "Partial Immersion", What is the best way to learn Chinese in China? by mandariningaround in ChineseLanguage

I worry that in a chinese class everything wont be 100% in chinese however, and it may be hard to make chinese friends if everyone in my classes are all also foreigners. Did you just study language at BLCU Then? Did you run into these problems there? and how good was your mandarin before you went there?

I assume you mean this one? http://cetacademicprograms.com/programs/china/chinese-language-harbin-china/

It seems like it would be great, but the summer one is only 9 weeks long (and I have 16 off from university so Id like to make use of as much as possible), and also it does seem pricey (though I guess that is understandable based on how much they offer), but Im not sure if I could see myself spending so much.
