International

Our International/ESL program attracts students from around the world to live in
the United States and study at Eldorado Emerson. We offer I-20 (F1) Visas, home-stay
accommodations and transportation to and from school. The International/ESL program
is made possible by a diverse faculty representing numerous foreign languages, in
addition to a teacher with a Masters Degree in ESL, as well as small class sizes
which provide individual attention to each student. This intimate learning atmosphere
is the hallmark of our school and has allowed us to create a family-like environment
that is highly responsive to the needs of our international and ESL students. Our
International/ESL program also contributes to the learning experience of our domestic
students, by providing them with exposure to diverse cultures, languages and ideas.
We accept applications to our International/ESL program on a year round basis. Application
materials include the student's academic records along with teacher recommendations
(with English translations). Incoming ESL students are evaluated by our in-house
placement test, previous exposure to English and an oral interview with our ESL
staff. Based on these assessments, students are given a corresponding number of
ESL classes per week. Strong emphasis is given toward integrating ESL students into
regular academic classes as quickly as possible by first allowing them to acclimate
into low-content courses first, such as music, art, and sports while at the same
time taking increasingly more challenging ESL courses. Our graduating International/ESL
students typically enroll directly into prestigious private and state colleges,
as well as foreign universities. Host Family and transportation information may
be made available by contacting our office.
Application steps for International students:
- Print and fill out all International forms.
- Provide the student's school transcript for their current school year, and for the
previous school year, translated if necessary. Student must have at least B-grade

- Upon our review of the student's paperwork and our decision to accept the student,
and upon receipt of the tuition deposit, we will create the I-20 immediately for
delivery to the student, so the student can acquire his F1 Visa at the consulate
in their own country.
