English for the goals ahead.
An intensive English language program in the heart of an urban university.
Our program serves students from a wide variety of populations, both international and domestic. It is designed to help students use English to achieve their personal, academic, and professional goals.
Those goals give English study its purpose: a connection between language learning and what each student hopes to do next.
Different backgrounds. Individual goals.
International and domestic students bring a wide range of experiences and aspirations to English study.
There is no single story behind the decision to develop English language skills. Personal priorities, academic plans, and professional ambitions can all shape a student’s reasons for learning.
Our program’s purpose is to help students use English in pursuit of those goals, recognizing the variety of populations we serve.
Language learning with a purpose.
Personal goals
Develop English with your own priorities in mind—whether that means expressing ideas, making connections, or participating more fully in everyday life.
Academic goals
Build toward the language demands of academic life, where understanding texts and communicating ideas are central to learning.
Professional goals
Connect English study with the communication you hope to use in your professional life and the opportunities you want to pursue.
