English as a Second Language (ESL) Program

English for academic purposes:
Saint Martin's University offers an intensive ESL program for students who are academically qualified to attend Saint Martin's University, but lack the required TOEFL score. The program offers college preparatory courses for students from beginning to advanced level. Students applying to the intensive ESL program must meet all Saint Martin's admission requirements with the exception of the TOEFL score.

Conditional acceptance:
Students accepted to the intensive ESL program are granted a conditional admission to the university. They are expected to complete their ESL study within an 18 month period. Any extension beyond the 18 months will require special permission from the program director.

Concurrent status:
Students who have achieved TOEFL scores between 490 and 524 enter with concurrent status and are eligible to enroll in one or two regular courses in addition to ESL courses. A student will be fully enrolled in regular courses once a 525 or better TOEFL score has been achieved.

For more information on ESL programs, please contact Josephine Yung, Dean of the International Education Division, at (360) 438-4375 or email at jyung@stmartin.edu.
