Certificate in English Language Program
The English Language Certificate Program is an intensive academic English program designed to prepare ELP students aged 18 and over for academic study at the undergraduate and graduate level. Classes in grammar, reading, writing, listening and speaking help students achieve the advanced level English skill needed to be successful in academic studies. Students who successfully complete the Advanced level earn the University of Guelph Certificate of English Proficiency, which meets the English proficiency requirements for entry into undergraduate and graduate studies at the University of Guelph and the University of Guelph-Humber. Applicants are encouraged to have an intermediate English skill level, and an academic goal to study at a university.
Students may also earn the Certificate of English Proficiency by completing the Integrated Admission Pathway, which provides students with the opportunity to earn undergraduate degree-level credits while developing their language skills in academic English courses. The pathway includes a combination of classroom-based and fully online degree course offerings and offers a range of student support.
Applicants are encouraged to have an intermediate English skill level, and an academic goal to study at a university.
