ELTprogram 

The English Language Transition (ELT) Program at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls provides intensive English language courses for undergraduate degree-seeking students. Admission to the ELT program indicates that a student is academically qualified for admission but has not yet met the English language requirement.

Upon arrival, ELT students will take a test to determine their placement within the ELT program.  Students will be enrolled in intensive English language learning courses, for a minimum of one semester, until they have attained the necessary skills to transition into undergraduate courses.

Minimum test scores required for admission to the ELT Program are as follows:

TOEFL (iBT)
IELTS
54 4.5


Results of other recognized English language assessment tests (i.e. Michigan, Pearson, Cambridge, TOEIC, EIKEN) can be submitted in lieu of TOEFL or IELTS .

Student enrolled in, or who have completed beginning or intermediate level ESL training programs at an accredited language school are welcome to apply for placement in the English Language Transition program at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls.    

We are currently accepting applications for admission for Fall 2012. The application and all supporting documents are due June 1, 2012.

For more information on the English Language Transition Program, visit  their website (ELT Program) or by contacting Carolyn Brady, International Admissions and Student Exchange Coordinator, in Global Connections. She may be reached by phone at 011-715-425-0683.
