An Immersive Experience

Work closely with other students from the English Language Center to enjoy active learning in and out of the classroom. You will study among other international students on a campus that is small, safe and filled with exceptional opportunity. In addition to classes, you can enjoy trips to whitewater rafting excursions, hiking adventures and other activities northeastern Pennsylvania has to offer. You can also take a day trip to sightsee in Philadelphia or New York City, located just two hours away.
