If you want to study on a full-time ESL program, you can choose from our two main study options: 1) the Intensive25, and 2) the Intensive30.

Both of these programs are I-20 eligible to meet the needs of international students wanting to visit the United States on student visas. Please refer to our immigration page for instructions on how to apply for an I-20.
