Summer EAP is a highly-interactive intensive English experience open exclusively to international graduate and professional students who have been accepted to the University of Michigan.
In this program, you will gain confidence and fluency using English effectively in your graduate classes and in interactions with faculty, advisors, and other students. You will learn about U.S. academic culture, including faculty expectations and graduate student life.
You will also learn about Michigan and U.S. culture and become comfortable communicating with a diverse range of Americans. You will also connect with other graduate students and begin to develop a social network to support you throughout your time at Michigan
