School Introduction

Despite its location in a metropolitan area of more than 1.5 million people, the campus includes rolling hills with forests, streams, and ponds, surrounding a pedestrian core of contemporary air-conditioned buildings that has the feel of a small, residential campus. Easily accessed by nearby interstate highways and an international airport, the campus is enhanced by University City, a planned community that has shopping centers, a research park, and a hospital, near campus.

ESL Program Introduction

This program will focus on giving students the language and cultural skills they will need to adapt quickly and perform successfully when they come back to the U.S. to study for a longer period at ANY American university, as undergraduates or as graduate students. Every class and activity in this program relates and applies to this theme.
• Content-based, communicative, English classes will give students opportunities to practice their language skills for real communication with professors and students.
• Students will be shown how to use all the resources and services for assisting students on a typical American university campus.
• Students will gain the confidence they need to adapt quickly and successfully to academic and social life at any American university.
