Children ages 3-12 of Central students, faculty, and staff are able to have a meaningful, developmentally appropriate and enriching educational experience.
Central’s commitment to diversity would be most incomplete without the presence of international students and scholars on campus. The presence of international students and scholars on the Central campus enriches the educational environment for all. ISSS advises and supports international scholars, exchange students, degree-seeking students, as well as students who come to Central to learn English in the Intensive English Language Program (IELP). ISSS is also instrumental in creating a supportive environment that attracts and retains international students and scholars—an important component in Central’s commitment to diversity.
The mission of the Intensive English Language Program (IELP) is to provide English as a Second Language (ESL) instruction in American English and an introduction to American culture. IELP serves international students, non-native speakers of English residing in the U.S., faculty members from abroad, and foreign professionals. Specifically, IELP offers English for Academic Purposes (EAP) to individuals who are seeking enrollment into American universities and facilitates the transition of these students into mainstream academic courses.
