Curriculum
 
Our courses are primarily designed to prepare international students for academic study at American universities. There are six proficiency levels of instruction. In all of these levels, students receive 20 hours of instruction in grammar, reading, writing, listening, speaking, and pronunciation per week. Classes are purposely kept small so that you can receive the individual attention needed to improve your English language skills.

At the beginning of each 8-week session, all newly admitted students will be required to take a placement exam to determine their appropriate level. During the first week of class, the instructor will carefully review the student’s performance to make sure that he/she is placed in the proper level.

A student may be in different levels of Reading and Writing or Grammar and Listening/Speaking/Pronunciation.

After the successful completion of Level 6 of the IEP, students can take the IEP-UL Lafayette Exit Exam. With a satisfactory score, students may enter the University without taking the TOEFL.
