Student Testimonials
“GOAL was really helpful in making me academically prepared for graduate school. Now, I can read articles more quickly and write proposals and literature reviews. In just six weeks, I am already better prepared and skilled in English than other international students who are already taking university classes.” -Yinqi, graduate student
“I chose the English Language Institute (ELI) at Michigan Tech to enhance my English and help myself transfer smoothly to American academic life. What attracted me to Michigan Tech are the safe environment and strong engineering background. In fact, Michigan Tech is often ranked as the safest campus in the U.S. Quite often, students are hesitant about taking English as a Second Language classes at American universities. But taking these classes helped me be more successful in my major classes and active in campus clubs.” ~Lifan Zhou, chemical engineering graduate
“I would strongly recommend to consider USA for their education and to enroll in English Language Institute to excel their language skills and for success in their technical studies.” ~Sandesh More, electrical engineering graduate
