ESL Programs

Tompkins Cortland is committed to all students who want to improve their proficiency and helping students succeed in their academic life at our college. Our ESL programs help students of varying levels of English proficiency prepare for the demands of American university-level courses.

For our Global Connections programs, students might need to take ESL courses before beginning the coursework for their degree, based on their English proficiency scores.

Our partnering institutions sometimes request specialized classes or programs for staff or faculty. At Tompkins Cortland, we are ready and able to develop programs that will fit your institution’s needs.
