The Institute for English As a Second Language and American Studies at The College of New Jersey provides non-native speakers of English (at least 18 years of age) with instruction in English for Academic Purposes and American Studies in an intensive summer session for undergraduate and graduate students as well as a full-term Spring program available to select undergraduate students beginning each January.
Our institute runs learner-centered communicative courses whose primary goal is to help students enhance their proficiency in American English and improve their understanding of Americans and their culture to set them up for success in their academic pursuits. Students pursuing bachelor’s or graduate degrees at American colleges and universities will enhance their linguistic and cultural preparation for American higher education by studying in small groups with excellent instructors. By taking part in the life of a selective suburban college, students will also gain important exposure to the American academic system and campus life.
