Register In Person

Registering for the Academic Skills and English for Success Programs

In order to register for our Academic Skills Program (either day, evening or Saturday classes), you must first take a placement test to determine your level of English.

Please call us at 212-772-4290 or 212-772-4292 or come into our office to schedule an appointment for the test.*

On the day of the test, you will be given a registration date (usually 2 to 4 days later) when you may return to our office to learn your placement and to register for classes. 

It is also possible to register for these classes online, but you will still need to make an appointment for a placement test by phone and come in to take the test.

*Please note that the we use the TOEIC as our placement test. If you have taken the TOEIC any time in the past year, or if you would like to take it before coming to New York, you may bring your official score report with you for placement into our academic program. In addition to your TOEIC score, you will need to take a 15-minute writing placement test when you come in to register.
