Intensive English Program

The Intensive English Program (IEP) is an affordable, high quality English language study program that helps ambitious students achieve college-level fluency. The college is certified to issue I-20 for F-1 students in the program.

The IEP is located on the Marietta Campus and meets 4 days a week. International F-1 students are required to enroll full-time in all 5 courses offered. Students on B1/B2 tourist visa are required to enroll in ONLY 2 courses at their choosing. All other immigrant and non-immigrant students can enroll either full-time or part-time depending on which ESL courses they want to take.

Each course is eight weeks long and meets twice a week for a total of 32 hours.

The program has 8 levels from Beginner to Advanced, and students may enter the program at any level depending on their performance in an entrance exam.

Full-time students are enrolled in 5 courses which meet twice weekly from Monday to Thursday for a total of 20 hours of attendance per week. Those courses are Grammar, Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Integrated Skills.

Students who graduate our program have the necessary English-language proficiency to succeed in any college-level course.
