Faculty

Applied Language Institute faculty and staff understand what it's like to learn a new language while adjusting to a different culture because, in many cases, they've done it themselves. Our instructors hold advanced degrees in linguistics, education and teaching English and are excited to help you develop your English proficiency so you can accomplish your educational and professional goals.

Pathway Structure

The ALI has two sequential programs that support students from beginner to upper-intermediate levels of English proficiency: Intensive English Program (IEP) or the Paseo Program. Together, the two programs provide a pathway from foundational English language development to university readiness. Students are placed based on English proficiency.

Post-study work information

Optional Practical Training (OPT). OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical. Eligibility is checked for each program — see the program page.

Eagle Link does not guarantee visa approval and does not make immigration decisions.
