I want to study part-time. What do I do?
If you are from a country with a Visa Waiver Program ( VWP ) agreement with the U.S., or if you are a visitor (B-1/B-2 visa) and you want to experience learning English, you may study part-time (9 or 15 hours at IMPAC). Visit “How to apply” page to find out the admission process. If you are traveling under VWP, don’t forget to register for ESTA.
