Students who enter the Intensive English Program semester enroll in the 8- or 16 Week English program. The program curriculum includes two courses levels: upper and lower.

Courses are designed to combine English instruction with orientation-type activities that support students’ integration into the university. During the program, students will take*:

6 hours of Reading and Writing

6 hours of Speaking and Listening

4 hours of Special Academic Topics (SAT)

2–4 hours of Student Signature Experience

Total Weekly Program Hours = 18–20

*This schedule may be adapted for the summer semester and/or based on student needs.

In each level of the program, students will take two English proficiency courses. These courses build students’ language proficiency and orient them to U.S. university study.
