Short-Term Academic English Programming

Short-term programs are intended for students who want to improve their English and plan to study for a half-term at the English Language Centre.

Students who take the short-term program:

• will be completing half of a level/term in the Intensive Academic English Program (IAEP) and will receive a letter of accomplishment. Students cannot advance to the next level. In order to do so, they must successfully complete a full level/term (14 weeks). 
• will only be placed in the Foundations Level or Levels 1-4

Students who need to meet the University of Manitoba’s English language proficiency requirement must apply to the full-time IAEP and enrol in full levels/term (14 weeks), and successfully complete Level 5/ Academic English Program for University and College Entrance (AEPUCE).
