American Language Institute

ASSESSING LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY

Many other universities in the United States refer their undergraduate and graduate students to the American Language Institute for initial testing of English proficiency and for study. Students accepted by other universities may wish to study English full time at the American Language Institute before beginning their academic programs. In this case, they can apply for the I-20 form for English study only. To find out more, contact NYU’s Office for International Students and Scholars.

At a student’s written request, an English Language Report (the American Language Institute’s official statement of an individual’s English proficiency) will be sent to a school, organization, or sponsoring agency.
