Your Questions Answered

How long is the ESL Transition Program?
This depends on how quickly you make progress, and your level of English on entry. You can test out of transition as soon as you reach the equivalent of TOEFL iBT 79. Most students take either one or two semesters of transition.

How will I know when I’m ready to test out of Transition?
You will have a weekly tutorial with your supervisor who pays close attention to your progress. Together you will decide when you have reached the language level and are confident enough to begin full time academic study without language support.

How many hours of study are there per week?
This will vary depending on how many credit classes you can take and your level of English, but you will be on a full timetable with approximately 18-26 academic hours of class time per week.

Can I use all the facilities on campus?
Yes! You will be a fully enrolled Woodbury University student, and have full access to all campus facilities including borrowing rights at the library, entry to student clubs and organizations and the ability to apply for a job on campus.
