English Language Institute at Oklahoma State University

The global COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on Oklahoma State University, and particularly the School of Global Studies and Partnerships. The worldwide curtailment of international travel, the difficulty in students obtaining visas, and the disruption to international education means that it will be very difficult for us to bring enough new students into our program this year to meet the costs of operating the program. After significant research and considerabl...e thought, we have made the difficult decision to suspend the new student intake at the English Language Institute (ELI) for the fall of 2020. We do currently have a small number of students who are already on campus and enrolled in classes, and we will continue to offer courses to them in the fall so that they can finish their current program of study. We are very grateful to the staff and instructors for their efforts and dedication to ELI. It is our goal to use this time to restructure and restart our important English language instruction program in the fall of 2021. See more

Quarantine doesn't stop learning! Some ELI students went on a scavenger hunt and then practiced adverbs of frequency with their found items. And we still get to practice speaking skills virtually with our great American conversation partners.

Oklahoma State University is doing a campaign called #CowboyFamily to help get us through this difficult time. We would love to hear how you are making the best of this difficult situation! Just send your video to the ELI, and we will post it on our Facebook page.

Mid-spring session started this week in the ELI and our new students are already working hard and improving their English abilities.
