Über Columbia University - American Language Program
The American Language Program (ALP), founded in 1911, is one of the oldest programs in English as a second language in the United States.
Its mission is to offer high-quality academic language courses and other academic support for full-time language students and international students in degree programs at Columbia University.
The ALP fosters the internationalization of Columbia by offering a carefully integrated sequence of courses to those who wish to improve their command of English, including students and business and professional people.

Note: The ALP does not teach total beginners. If you speak no English, the ALP is not the right program for you. Level 1 (Elementary) students must be able to speak, understand, write, and read simple English sentences before coming to the ALP. All students are re-tested when they arrive.
