High School Credit Program (HSCP)

Tamil, a South Indian language, has been found to be one of the most ancient languages of the world, with its literature dating back to 300 BC. It is one of the main languages spoken in India, Singapore, Sri Lanka, and Malaysia, and is also spoken by significant minorities in many countries including England, Canada, and the United States.

Tamil language and literature has been taught at UC Berkeley for more than 40 years, and also has its own department at University of Chicago, University of Pennsylvania, and University of Texas - Austin.

International Tamil Academy, originally known as California Tamil Academy, is now offering four levels of Tamil courses for the High School students. These courses are approved as world language courses like French, Spanish, etc. by various school districts in San Francisco Bay Area.
