Co-curricular and extra-curricular activities connect domestic and IEP students to share an experience together. Through this special programming, IEP students practice their language skills and have fun! Additionally, with more than 200 student clubs and organizations on campus, students will find an activity to match their interests and opportunities to meet American and international students. Clubs include professional and academic clubs, service organizations, recreational sports, special interest groups, and international student groups.


Current and former IEP students often need to request documents from the Intensive English Program office. Our office can provide progress reports for a student’s government/embassy, attendance letter, IEP graduation certificate, honor roll certificate, etc. Students can choose to pick up these documents at the IEP Office in the Rike Center, room 112, or have a PDF copy sent to a preferred email.
