On behalf of the IELI faculty and staff, I am pleased that you have found our website. We are a small program with highly qualified and experienced faculty. The Intensive English Language Institute began in 1972 and since then, we have been involved in many different international activities at Utah State University (USU), in the U.S., and around the world. We offer a full academic 18 credit Intensive English program that successfully prepares students for their chosen majors at the university. IELI graduates have an average GPA of 3.0!
Please have a look around to learn more about our program, about USU, and about Logan, Utah—one of the safest and most beautiful campuses in the U.S.
If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact us. We would be happy to help!
