what a US classroom is like. The IEP forms a partnership between
motivated students, qualified instructors and a supportive university
community so that students can use English to achieve their
dreams. ESL students are considered regular members of the university

***Please note, the IEP is an academic preparation
program. We expect students to be at least High Beginning
students. We do not require a TOEFL score, but it is highly
recommended that a student have around a 400+ TOEFL score.
