"The experience at EC helped me get used to using English more confidently."

Koyuki Nakahara, student from Japan

I like my classmates. They were very fun and each of them has their dream.

Without them I couldn't improve English within short time. The location of EC was awesome. The teachers are fantastic too.

All of them have their passion on teaching English and being together with young people.

House was a little far but very nice. The host didn't only provide good meals but also corrected my English a lot.

"Amazing"

Andrina Franziska Härter, student from Switzerland

The build-up from the classes was great. I had great teachers. They explained everything and the lessons were always fun! The school’s location was perfect! If you walked 15 minutes by foot, you were already at the wonderful La Jolla Shores. Also, the activities were greatly planned and you could choose a lot of different stuff to do! I am very happy that I was at EC San Diego.

"One of the best schools I have ever been, it was a mix of two stuff: fun and learning"

Rawwad Al Zahrani, student from Saudi Arabia

First of all I improved my skills in English and that was the point for me. I moved up only one level from low into intermediate. I was hoping to do more but I didn't get enough time. The academic director’s name was Ms. Heather. She was laughing at me but I didn't care. I tried to do my best and I went to the self study section and Mr. Daniel Heckmyer helped me a lot in improving my writing skills. After that I took a level test and I passed. My goal was improving but the academic director wasn't really helpful. She just gave me a chance after she was laughing. About teachers Mr. brine was really creative and useful. The activities were fun but about the same thing every month. However we have fun in the classes. It was most of the time without any air conditioning. About my host family, they were really good. They were easygoing. Finally I paid for my health insurance and I didn't get it from school or in my email box. I asked the front desk in EC San Diego but they didn't know anything. Next seven months I would like to be in EC again if I hear new changes to make it the best.

Regards
Rawwad Al Zahrani

"The best experience i've ever had."

Andrea Alejandra Garcia Gonzalez, student from Mexico

It was a unique experience. At first I thought it was going to be like a typical class but even my first day was great! I loved every single teacher I had the chance to know and all my classmates are such great people and even now we're still friends. Every day I would laugh and just have a good time... I loved going to this school.

visa

Visa support

We cannot apply for visas on behalf of students. However, the school can supply you with all the documentation you need to support your visa application.

If you are studying full time in the United States for more than 18 hours per week, you will receive an I-20 that you need to submit to the US embassy along with your F-1 student visa application. The I-20 has a SEVIS tracking number on it. Students who wish to apply for a student visa must pay the SEVIS fee online before going to the US embassy or consulate for their visa interview.

Your I-20 will be sent to your home address by regular mail at no charge to you. If you wish to receive your paperwork by express mail, you will be charged $80 when you register.

Please note that United States law states that an I-20 can only be issued to students who intend to pursue full-time English language studies. United States law does not permit students to study part-time with an F-1 Student Visa. If you are studying for less than 18 hours per week, you have to apply for a Visitor Visa (B1/B2) on your own.

Ask a question

"Can you confirm that the student will be able to take this course on a tourist visa?"

Students who study more than 18 hours a week in the US or engage in a full time study should apply for F-1 visa according to the US non-immigration law. While we understand that student may wish to travel with ESTA and study more than 18 hours, please note that it’s in the student’s best interest to apply for F-1 visa in this case. We can book the student the course desired, but EC will not be responsible for any complications that might arise at the port of entry. We highly recommended to apply for F-1 when student is enrolling for 24 hours per week.

"Is it possible for a student to stay with a host family who have kids older than ten years old? And is it possible to have a private bathroom?"

Unfortunately we don’t offer room at homestay with private bathroom in San Diego. And we can check with our accommodation team regarding the special request of no children younger than 10 years old.
