International Language Association

An exciting new addition to our ELI programming, the ILA is the first student-run association of its kind, with a mission to bridge the gap between International and American students through language exchange. The ILA provides students with an opportunity to practice a language with native speakers and gain cultural insight.

We currently offer ELL, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Russian and group activities. More languages are coming soon!

How does the ILA work?

The ILA is organized by a group of students-the ILA Committee. We recruit language coordinators who are native or have advanced fluency to facilitate activities for language enrichment.

ELL is open to all levels of English proficiency.

For Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and Russian we offer Beginner (no prior experience), Elementary, Intermediate, and Advanced levels
