University of Florida, English Language Institute
One of the oldest and most experienced English Language programs in the U.S., the ELI is located in the beautiful urban forest of Gainesville, Florida. Established in 1955, the ELI offers a rigorous intensive English curriculum designed to prepare students to enter an undergraduate or graduate degree program at a U.S. university.
Founded in 1853, the University of Florida is the state's oldest, largest, and most comprehensive institution of higher learning. The 2,000-acre campus is home to over 46,000 students in more than 100 undergraduate majors and 200 graduate programs. UF's sports teams, The Gators, are a source of enormous pride. This year both the men's basketball team and football team are the National Champions.
The primary mission of the ELI-UF is to prepare international students for study at the undergraduate or graduate levels. Students are required to speak English at all times. Highly qualified instructors will teach students to read university-level materials, write academic papers and exams, speak fluently in formal and informal settings, take notes and timed, objective tests.
As a student of the ELI-UF, you will take 23 contact hours or core classes weekly in Reading/Writing, Speaking/Listening, and Grammar. Classes are small, averaging 12 students. There are additional elective courses available for those who qualify, and all full time students can take the free institutional TOEFL at the end of each term.
The ELI-UF is dedicated to students. We provide housing assistance and academic advisement. The ELI-UF will also keep you busy with fun activities in the Cultural Immersion Program. Through the CIP you will have UF students as Language Assistants and Conversation Partners. You will be able to participate in sports, movies, coffee hour, guided shopping trips, and exciting weekend trips to Disney World, Busch Gardens, Universal Studios, Sea World, and Florida's beautiful beaches.
