Teaneck, in New Jersey, is a green, quiet town about 30-45 minutes from Manhattan. Home to a Fairleigh Dickinson University campus, it offers campus life close to New York.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Teaneck. Fairleigh Dickinson University's international programs and New York's language schools are among the options.
In Teaneck 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.
