The
Intensive English Program (IEP) is a non-credit, non-degree program for
individuals who wish to study English-only at the University of San Francisco.
Admission to the IEP is open to individuals who are 18 years of age or older
and/or have completed their secondary education. USF IEP offers courses at the
intermediate and advanced levels. Admission to
the IEP is separate from degree admission to the University of San Francisco
and does not guarantee admission at a later time. For information about degree
admission to USF, please visit the USF International Admissions website at www.usfca.edu/admission.
All F-1 Visa holders are required to study full-time in the
