St. John’s offers an Intensive
English Program (IEP) for international students who are
academically qualified but have lower TOEFL scores than the
University requires.
After successfully completing the IEP program, international
students may begin the degree program of their choice. The
Intensive English Program (IEP) is also open to any student
for full-time, part-time (day or evening), and private ESL
classes.

The English as a Second Language
Institute offers the full-time Intensive English Program
(IEP), as well as part-time English as a Second Language (ESL)
