Language
Support Program
Washington State
University and the Intensive American Language Center
If your English
ability is preventing you from being successful in your classes
or research requirements at WSU, the Language Support Program
may be a valuable option for you.
Please check
with your academic advisor to learn more about this program
Requirements
- Be admitted
to WSU as a graduate or undergraduate student and continue
to be enrolled in your academic program for at least 50% of
the full-time credit requirement, i.e. at least 6 credits
for undergraduates and 5 credits for graduate students.
- Be enrolled
at WSU and IALC for the combined equivalent of at least 12
credits for undergraduates and 10 credits for graduate students for
the entire semester.
Procedures
- Consult with
your academic advisor to drop some academic courses but maintain
a minimum of 6 credits for undergraduates and 5 credits for
graduates. Complete the Language Support Program Form with
the written recommendation from your WSU academic advisor.
Part-time tuition payments at WSU or
refunds may be applicable if the withdrawal process is completed
according to the published time schedule. NOTE: Students
may only add IALC classes through Tuesday of week 2 of each
IALC session. Therefore,
students should wait to officially drop their WSU courses until
after they have confirmed their
new schedule with the IALC advisor.
- Complete
the IALC APPLICATION including
application fee, and pay part-time IALC tuition.
- The IALC
advisor will keep a copy of the Language Support Program form
for your IALC file and send a copy of the form for your WSU
file in the International Students and Scholars (ISS) Office
in Bryan Hall.
You
may e-mail the IALC or contact
us using the information listed at the bottom of this page
for additional details. Information can be sent to you by e-mail,
mail or fax. You are also welcome to download our PDF brochure or

Reader to do this), or you can request information using
our on-line form. |
