Welcome!
Here are the most important parts of the website for academic information for all programs within the English Language Institute:
- Intensive English Program

The IEP is intended for full-time F1 students and meets for an intensive 23 hours per week. There are six levels of proficiency from beginner to advanced. For questions about the skills, promotion criteria through the levels, and exiting the program, contact Patricia Moon. - Course syllabi for the Intensive English Program give detailed information about each class and student expectations.
