Damascus Travel Forum

So, I have nearly decided that Damascus University is the place I want to study Arabic this summer for approximately 2 months. Several people have informed me that the best way to sign up for the courses as Damascus University is to do it personally. I would have no problem doing this; however, what I wish to know is that is it guaranteed that there will be a spot for me when I get there? Secondly, is there anyway to find out when exactly the program begins in June? Finally, is there anyway someone could explain how one would go about living alone in Damascus for 2 months? I know the last question is a little broad, but whatever info. you have would be appreciated. Thanks.

Umm...I went to damascushotel.com, but it didn't seem like the site you were talking about. Are you sure that's how you spell it?

the correct website is : www.damascushostel.com (hostel, not hotel).

Myself, i have been there with Arabesk Damascus. Search in Google, i think their email is arabesk at mail.sy. they can assist you in your settlement in Damascus, specially accommodation search.

the course in Damascus University for Foreigners in June starts 28 May, and you have to be there before 26 May for registration. they dont accept late students. Next course is 2 July (registration ends 30 June). If you cant make it, ask Arabesk for a tailored arabic private teacher for your stay.

If you need anyhting, you can email me.
