Daytime electives are required for all students in the
Academic Intensive English Program and are open to the general public as well.
During regular semesters, classes meet twice per week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, for a total of four hours per week. During the summer, electives meet for a total of five hours per week.
Electives are grouped by proficiency level; this means there are courses designed for beginner, intermediate, and advanced level students.
Some electives focus on skills. These include: grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary. Other electives focus on content: business, public speaking, pop culture, architecture, and dance. Content electives help students develop their English skills while learning about another subject area.
Note: New students must take the English as a Second Language placement test before registering for a daytime elective. Please call our enrollment team at 646-312-5000 to sign up for the placement test.
