The English Language Institute in the College of Arts and Sciences offers intensive academic English as a Second Language (ESL) courses to non-native speakers of English. Students are given a placement test upon registering for the program. This test determines the proficiency level into which the student is placed, ranging from elementary, low-intermediate, high-intermediate, to advanced pre-university ESL.
Students attend non-credit classes 25 hours per week. International students on a USF I-20, F-2 and J-2 visa holders, as well as permanent residents may enroll part-time in the ELI. The integrated-skill, content-based curriculum includes training in listening comprehension, spoken English, grammar, reading, writing, culture, learning strategies, and a host of test prep elective courses (TOEFL, GRE, SAT, SPEAK) for upper-level students.
The English Language Institute is authorized to issue Certificate of Eligibility (I-20) to students who require a Student Visa (F-1) and who meet criteria set forth by the U.S. Bureau of Citizens and Immigration Services.
The cost of the program is $ 3,150.00 per semester, including health fee, activities fee, and a non-refundable application fee.
