Center for English as a Second Language
CESL's Graduate University Track Pathway Program (levels 8 & 9) at the University of Arizona provides graduate-bound students with advanced-level English courses, which are specifically designed to prepare them for the rigors of graduate-level course work. In addition to their ESL courses, students in the Graduate U-track Pathway sit in on a full UA undergraduate class (with more challenging work) or potentially one or more sessions of a UA graduate course in their intended field of study (with department approval) and receive support from a CESL instructor.
Full-time students in the Graduate U-Track Pathway are also eligible to apply for CESL's Graduate English Endorsement, which is accepted by most UA graduate departments and UA Graduate College as fulfillment of the English language proficiency requirement in lieu of the TOEFL or IELTS exams. Endorsement is only offered in Fall 2, Spring 2 and Summer sessions (unless it is a student's second session).
