English Language Learning and International Pathway Program

English Language Learning and the International Pathway Program 


Fredonia offers English Language support for students with a wide range of English language proficiency needs including an International Pathway Program (IPP) and a full time English Language Learning (ESL) program.

Fredonia's International Pathway Program combines ESL support classes with credit bearing courses designed for students who want to develop their English and English for Academic Purposes skills before continuing to a Fredonia degree program. Students in the undergraduate IPP earn 21-27 credits, which count toward the Fredonia Foundations degree requirements. The graduate IPP helps students earn 9-10 credits toward degrees in Master of Music in Music Education Studies, Master of Music in Performance, Master of Music in Theory/Composition, Master of Music in Music Therapy or Master of Science in Biology. The pathway program runs over the course of the regular Fall and Spring semester with an additional summer term as part of its three-term design.

Students can also pursue English language learning full time or part time as a stand-alone program, as a voluntary supplement to regular Fredonia courses, or as a visiting student.
