Details

Orientation schedule

You will fill out the necessary paperwork for enrollment.
Next, the Academic Director or Program Coordinator will give a presentation about our different programs, class rules, and how to succeed in your studies in order to move up from one level to another, and from one program to another.

Placement Test and Interview

Following the orientation, you will take the “English Placement Test”, which is about 80 questions, with a listening and writing part that covers Grammar, Vocabulary, and Reading comprehension. It is a 60 minute test that helps determine your English Level.
After the test, you will have a quick Speaking Test (more like an Interview) with one of our Instructors (either the PC, the AD or an MLI teacher).
This test is to help finalize your placement in the most appropriate level and/or program based on your skills and goals.

Purchasing Textbooks

After the Placement test and interview, students purchase textbooks from front desk staff. Front desk staff is available to answer any additional questions or concerns students may have.
