ELS Signs Partnership Agreement with University of St. Thomas for International Student Pathway Program

ELS and the University of St. Thomas (St. Paul, MN) recently signed an agreement to develop an undergraduate pathway program, marking the beginning of a new phase in their 20-year partnership.

This pathway program – the first undergraduate pathway for ELS –  will prepare international students for academic study at the University by allowing them to take English courses and core requirement courses simultaneously within their first year – enabling them to progress to year two and pursue the degree program of their choice.

The University of St. Thomas is ranked #115 in National Universities byU.S. News & World Report. International students in this pathway program can pursue a degree in one of UST’s most popular undergraduate programs, such as science, finance, business, and the nationally ranked #29 engineering program (U.S. News & World Report).

The University of St. Thomas Pathway Program aims to enroll its first international students in 2019, and will offer a combination of programs and services such as courses for degree credit, counseling, and English-language support.
