English-Language Immersion

For international students looking to improve their English skills, we offer a 4-week English Language Immersion program.

The best — and most enjoyable — way to learn English is to be immersed in the language and the culture.  You’ll be part of a community that wants to learn as much about you as you want to learn about it. You’ll live with, eat with, and explore with our entire community of learners. Our goal is for you to feel at home.

Four weeks
July 3 to Aug. 1, 2026
