American English Institute
Program Information
Whether you are a student who wishes to experience one year of University study (non-degree seeking) or looking to enroll in an American College or University, AEI is guaranteed to excel your level of English proficiency. AEI offers English instruction at the low-intermediate to advanced levels, and we currently do not offer beginner-level instruction. Those enrolled in AEI must have full attendance and cannot miss any instruction due to unexcused absences. Residents of the United States can take AEI classes but are subject to the same attendance policy as International Students.
