Hi everyone!
I am a graduate student that will be moving to Damascus in late January or early February of 2012 to learn Arabic. I am from the US, and I have read all of the requirements for visa entry and exit to Syria, but I was wanting to know if anyone had any further insight? I have been told to apply for visa entry as a tourist and to apply for tourist stay once I am in the country. I plan on staying for about seven months.
Also, does anyone have anything to say about IRAMES language institute? It is the language school I will be studying Arabic at.
Thank you,
Brannan
