ELS Educational Services
Montco partners with ELS Educational Services to provide conditional admission for students who are academically qualified, but don't meet our English Language proficiency requirements at the time of the application.
ELS students who completed ELS 110 level can be admitted to Montco’s associate degree programs if they pass Montco’s regular English placement assessment. This will be evaluated by the International advisor. Please contact international@mc3.edu for more information.
