Brown University’s Intensive English Language Program (IEP) is a four-week program for high-achieving, university-bound students who do not speak English as their native language. This 4-week program combines intensive English language study with liberal arts courses which explore the American experience and global topics. This combined approach delivers language learning in the context of global culture.

Students gain the tools to transition between cultures and the communication skills to function in English language situations. Mornings are dedicated to intensive English language study conducted in groups with other non-native English speakers. Course time is divided into 3 areas: Academic writing; Speaking & pronunciation; Integrated skills.

Three 11-week English language programs are offered during the academic year (Sept-May), as well as an 8-week summer program.
