FSC has made a firm commitment to International Education. We welcome applications from international students, and we have developed some outstanding programs to attract and assist our international scholars. Requirements for Admission International students interested in being admitted to a regular program of study at FSC must be high school graduates. The Intensive English Program at Fairmont State College is designed to help students learn the English language skills necessary for success at a U.S. college. Students receive personalized instruction in a friendly and relaxed classroom setting.
Students have many opportunities to meet with instructors in and out of class.
The Intensive English Program runs year-round. New programs begin in January, May, and August. Students are encouraged to begin their IEP studies at the beginning of a new program cycle, but we welcome students at any time of the year. After class, students have the opportunity to meet with instructors, participate in discussion groups, work in the computer lab, or study in the library. We believe that students learn English by using the English they learn.
