English as a Second Language

The English as a Second Language (ESL) credit program offers non-native speakers an opportunity to develop their English skills as part of their full-time college program. It is also available part-time for students preparing to enter a degree program or anyone wishing to improve their English language for personal or employment reasons. Upon successful completion of the program, students are awarded an English Language Achievement Certificate designated "Highest Commendation," "Commendation," or "Proficient" depending on grades achieved in the Advanced course sequence.
