INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

Admission Requirements for International Applicants:
Students whose primary language is not English must have sufficient command of the English language to benefit from instruction at this University. Coursework is fully offered in English. It is required that students must be able to communicate effectively in English to complete courses. Such students must enroll, attend and complete the ESL program at American Heritage University campus in San Bernardino, California. This program is not available online.

Students whose native language is not English can now complete the English language requirement in San Bernardino, California. This is a front–loaded program in which the student completes ESL training prior to enrolling in any of the degree programs offered at American Heritage.

Students who need ESL are tested and placed in the appropriate class level. The program follows the university calendar in that it provides 180 hours of instruction per 8-week session. Upon completion, students are evaluated for advancement. Those who satisfactorily complete an acceptable program of instruction can apply for early admission to any of the academic degree programs.

The university features experienced professors in English language and linguistics. Each has traveled extensively, worked in another country and studied a foreign language. And because our professors have personally experienced many of the situations that international students encounter, they are thoroughly prepared to help the student conquer challenges of learning a new language and culture.

Courses range from Beginner through Advanced levels and each level can be completed in four months. Classes are available at all levels every month.

Graduation from the last level fulfills American Heritage University Language proficiency requirement so the English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) examination is not required.





However different we may be, if we can engage each other in conversation, we have a chance of coming to some kind of understanding.

It is a small world after all.
