Salt Lake City, the capital of Utah, sits at the foot of the Wasatch Mountains, minutes from world-famous ski resorts. Safe, clean and with good universities, it is ideal for students who love nature.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Salt Lake City. English programs at Salt Lake City's universities are the most common options.
In Salt Lake City you can book short courses of 1-2 weeks. On an intensive program, one English level usually takes 8-12 weeks. Reaching the TOEFL score American universities ask for usually needs a 6-12 month plan, depending on your starting level.
The biggest factor in the price is the length of your booking: the weekly fee drops noticeably for bookings of 12 weeks or more. Besides tuition, budget for items such as the registration fee, materials and the I-20 document fee for an F-1 visa. NGGlobal students can take advantage of the schools' seasonal offers.
At most language schools courses start every Monday, though some programs have set start dates. Because US visa appointment waiting times can be long, we recommend applying for long programs at least 4-6 months ahead.
Long-term, intensive language study requires an F-1 visa. The application calls for the school's I-20, the SEVIS fee receipt, the DS-160 form, proof of funds and documents showing your ties to Turkey. Visa interviews take place at the embassy in Ankara or the consulate general in Istanbul.
Opportunities to work in America during language study are almost non-existent, and working in breach of visa rules can lead to visa cancellation and refusal of future applications. Prepare a budget that covers your course and living costs from the start.
Homestays and campus housing are the most common accommodation options in Salt Lake City.
Living costs in Salt Lake City are close to the US average and lower than in New York or California.
Buses serve Salt Lake City, and walking and cycling are common around campus.
Salt Lake City has cold, snowy winters and hot, dry summers, with plenty of sunny days all year.
Salt Lake City Airport (SLC) is reached from Turkey with connecting flights, and the TRAX light rail runs to downtown.
Because the US uses daylight saving time, the time difference changes with the season: Salt Lake City is 10 hours behind Turkey in winter and 9 hours behind in summer. Plan calls home accordingly.
You can decide with NGGlobal which school, course and type of accommodation suit you best. We follow the whole process for you, from application and visa interview to arrival.
The Wasatch ski resorts are about 30-45 minutes from the city.
