Catering to international students and other individuals for whom English is not a primary language, the Program assists students in meeting their English proficiency needs while also providing a pathway to undergraduate admission at the institution.<\/p>\n<p>Intensive English Language Program courses will follow Marymount\u2019s academic calendar with Fall, Spring and Summer entry terms. The Program can be completed in as few as one or two semesters depending on language proficiency level, with a typical daily schedule that includes 100 minutes of listening and speaking, 105 minutes of reading and writing and 50 minutes of self-led instruction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis exciting new offering at Marymount offers students a unique experience in furthering their English language proficiency, while at the same time immersing themselves in Marymount\u2019s college culture as they study on campus,\u201d explained Dr. Hesham El-Rewini, <a href=\"https:\/\/marymount.edu\/academics\/office-of-the-provost\/\">Provost and Senior Vice President of Academic Affairs<\/a> at Marymount University. \u201cIELP students will take their classes in the same buildings as Marymount undergraduate and graduate students, have the opportunity to study and use University library resources, attend engaging college events and interact with Marymount faculty and staff.

Interested applicants must submit the IELP application, official transcripts from all previously attended schools, a certified course-by-course evaluation for all postsecondary coursework completed outside of the U.S. and a r\u00e9sum\u00e9 or CV should the applicant have any gaps in enrollment. Once accepted into the IELP program, students then work towards meeting admission requirements while studying Intensive English courses, and are then granted full admission into the undergraduate program of their choice when conditional requirements are met. Conditional admission applicants are not eligible for the Nursing (B.S.N.) or Nursing Accelerated Second Degree (B.S.N.) programs.<\/p>\n<p>For comprehensive information on Marymount\u2019s IELP program, <a href=\"https:\/\/marymount.edu\/academics\/center-global-engagement\/english-language-learning\/intensive-english-language-program-ielp\/\">click here<\/a>.
