If you are a student in the Chicago area
and want to improve your English language skills, Governors State University
offers a program you may be interested in through our School of Extended Learning. The American Language and Culture Institute’s
(ALCI) program is designed and taught by a professional faculty
to prepare students academically, socially, and culturally for success as
university students.
Our Intensive ESL
Program is for both international and U.S. students and is
available year-round. It is taught by an
ESL faculty that is experienced in assisting students who consider themselves
English Language Learners, and the program utilizes cutting-edge teaching
methods, curriculum design, and up-to-date research.
Students are provided with specialized
course work that includes Listening and Speaking, Reading and Writing,
Integrated Studies, Multimodal Composing, Pronunciation and Cross Cultural
Contexts. Our program is also intended
to help student with TOEFL test preparation.
Regardless of whether you are a
beginning learner or a student with more advanced English skills, our program
can help to prepare you to do better academically at the university level. Please
keep in mind that students applying to the Intensive ESL Program are not
automatically guaranteed admittance to Governor State’s undergraduate or
graduate programs. Students are still
required to meet the university standards for admission, and the application
process requires a transcript evaluation as well as TOEFL® or IELTS scores.
To apply to our Intensive ESL Program, we
offer a convenient online application.
The program accepts students 18 years or older, and for students 17
years of age, they need to submit their school transcripts. For your convenience, we offer an easy online
application. Please see our website for
more information.
Along with our extensive ESL programs,
GSU’s Office of International Services is available to assist all international
students, international faculty, staff and scholars, study abroad students and
their families. We are proud to be home
to a diverse population with representation from countries around the globe. We
encourage you to learn more about the rich history, cultural amenities and
beautiful campus that contributes to making us one of the top colleges in Illinois.
