ESL Program Introduction

The English As A Second Language (ESL) Certificate Program requires a total of 1, 800 class room hours for completion. This total represents the Beginner through TOEFL levels of comprehension. A rolling-admissions policy exist therefore, students who successfully pass both verbal and written placement tests prior to commencing their initial course of study may be qualified to take higher level classes without having to enroll in Beginner classes thus, expediting the time required for completion of the program. Please also refer to the Transfer of Credit section of this Catalog. All students are required to complete a minimum of 600 hours in-residence at EA in order to receive a certificate. These hours must represent their final hours of study in the ESL program. ESL courses cannot be transferred to other programs to satisfy the certificate requirements of those programs.
