Intensive English Programs

The Intensive English Program helps you improve your English quickly for college or university entrance, business or travel. WAL issues the form I-20 for international students who will apply for a student visa.

Teachers and advisors help you while you are at WAL. You will study with one teacher for five weeks. Your teacher gets to know you well and helps you focus on the areas that you need to improve. If you have questions about English or about your class, you can talk to your teacher. When you have questions about your homestay, which bus to take, or how to prepare for college, you can talk to the advisors. They are always happy to see you and eager to hear how you are doing!
