Content

Gaelic and Communication is a year-long intensive immersion course aimed at students who are reasonably fluent and who want to rapidly improve their Gaelic.

Depending on their level of Gaelic, all of our BA (Hons) degree students will complete either Gaelic and Communication or An Cùrsa Comais in their first year. Students may also take Gaelic and Communication as a one-year, standalone immersion course.

On this course, students will take advantage of our unique Gaelic-immersion community at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig to make rapid progress in their Gaelic speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. Students are expected to come prepared to use Gaelic at all times and in all situations on-campus at the College.

Entry Requirements
