The IELI in the heart of Manhattan

IELI students not only get the chance to learn English with highly qualified professionals, but also are immersed in a cultural crossroads. Our 68^th Street main campus, and our 94^th Street Hunter Campus Schools, are located on the Upper East Side- close to public transportation, Central Park, shopping, restaurants, museums and theaters. Our newest and most modern facility, the Silberman Campus on 119^th Street, is surrounded by the Jazz and Soul of multi-cultural Harlem.  Near colleges and universities such as NYU, Baruch, The New School and many more, our Brookdale Campus on 25^th Street is just one stop away from 14^th Street- Union Square, and a short train ride from bustling 42^nd Street-Times Square, where students can enjoy the sounds and sights of Manhattan.  Whichever the campus, one thing is certain: our students are sure to get a taste of the NYC life!
