I think KBC in hungary is closed (http://www.badukcenter.com. is down).

For China I know this: http://internetgoschool.com/goinchina.vhtml
It's organized through Guo Juan's internet go school. But mainly in chinese.

For Korea: http://biba2011.blogspot.co.at/
This is in english, if I remember correctly.


post scriptum: This is a nice blog post about studying abroad: http://beginningpath.blogspot.co.at/p/study-abroad.html
Although I don't know how up-to-date it is.

Maeda Ryo is hosting a three week go camp in Osaka that may be worth looking into.

I recommend BIBA http://biba2011.blogspot.co.at/

It is quite expensive though, $1000 a month.

I am pretty sure it will not be offered this year. I participated last year and the program seemed to be on its last legs. The main issue is that all of the teachers have graduated college and taken jobs, so they're not free in the summers anymore.
