School Introduction

Known as the “Premier Private 2-Year College”, Marymount College is located just south of downtown Los Angeles, on scenic bluffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The hilltop campus is surrounded by the community of Rancho Palos Verdes and perched above the beautiful California coastline.

Marymount, a private Catholic institution, offers an intimate, friendly environment at which students benefit from exceptional academic resources. The spacious student accommodations offer private kitchens and bathrooms, and a secure gated entryway.

Marymount is known for individualized attention to student needs and has a long tradition of hosting international students. The college’s welcoming atmosphere and caring staff provide an excellent environment for students new to the United States. Marymount’s Associate Degree programs provide a strong foundation for students transferring to four-year degree programs at numerous prestigious institutions.

ESL Program Introduction

Our most popular program, the Intensive English Program includes 30 lessons (25 hours) of instruction per week from qualified, native-speaking teachers.

Your teacher will work with you for the entire 30 lessons! Unlike other programs, our IEP does not count ‘lab hours’ or other independent study periods as lessons.

Our program places an exceptional emphasis on speaking. Students practice speaking skills frequently in class, receiving regular guidance and correction from their instructor.

All Intensive English Program students enjoy small class sizes of 15 or less, guaranteeing individual attention from your teacher.
