Welcome, English language learners! In addition to its many courses for students proficient in English, MCC's English department also offers English classes for students whose primary language is other than English.
After taking the CELSA language placement test, students are advised about appropriate classes and program options. MCC's regular ESL program offers a variety of semester long (16-week) ESL classes at five different language levels for beginning, intermediate, and advanced students as well as an Intensive English program (8-week sessions) which meets five days a week.
