The ESL (English as a Second Language) Transition Program is designed for international students who want to attend Merrimack College, but do not have the required English skills or TOEFL scores to gain direct entry into the undergraduate program. 

The student's English skills will determine whether they complete the ESL Transition program before starting their chosen major, minor or concentration, or take it in conjunction with academic courses. The ESL Transition Program provides language training, practical preparation and the opportunity to earn credits while studying on campus - allowing the student to gradually move into regular college courses while improving their language skills.
