Intensive English Program (IEP)
Students
Students in intensive English come from varied educational background and from all over the world. Some are preparing themselves to enter an undergraduate program while others are interested in graduate studies. A few students enter the intensive English program to to improve their English for business purposes or for self-enrichment. Yet another group comprises graduate students who have been admitted conditionally to the University with the provision that they take Intensive English before pursuing graduate studies. The only educational requirement to enroll in the Intensive English Program is completion of a high school education or its equivalent. Therefore, intensive English students have varying levels of English ability, ranging from beginner to highly advanced.- Students in the ELI are considered adult clients of
the Institute and as such are due full respect, courtesy,
and cooperation.
