Academic-Year Program (AYP)
Intensive
30-week program designed for students or professionals
with beginning to advanced levels of English
proficiency.
The
program consists of any three consecutive
10-week sessions. Students will take part
in the Intensive English Program and attend
24+ hours of English classes per week. Placement
in six levels, beginning to advanced. Small
classes (average 14 students per class) with
students from more than 35 countries.
All
participants must take a placement test on
Registration Day in order to assess their
English proficiency.
Student's
progress will depend on their language ability
on entry, but it is expected that students
will improve their knowledge by at least
three levels in the six-level scale (100-600).
Students who reach the advanced levels (500/600)
may take one Extension class or campus class
per session at no additional cost.
The
Academic Year Program offers an exceptional
value as it provides a savings of $900
over an equivalent total cost for three
sessions of the Intensive English Program.

“Studying
English at the University of California, Riverside,
has been one of the most valuable experiences
in my life. The Academic Year Program has offered
me not only the opportunity to learn English
in an international environment but also the
chance to study with native speakers in UC Riverside campus and Extension
classes.”

"IEP
offers me a great opportunity not only to brush
up on my English, but also to acquire business
skills through various certificate programs under
the wonderful weather of Southern California.
I would say that it is a school for an inquisitive
person! Thanks a lot.”
