Applicants who do not meet our English requirements may be conditionally accepted as English as a Second Language (ESL) students.

ESL courses are taken during the first two semesters. The classes are taken at the same time as other subjects related to the student's major and are counted toward their degrees in the form of electives.

Webster accepts applications from citizens of all countries who meet eligibility requirements.
