"It was great and functional"

Noah Lautaro Waissbluth Gaspar, student from USA

It was very good, because I had a very good teacher, we had good interactive activities with the book, but for me the best thing was when we did extra activities that were like debate, kahoot, ordering words, etc.
good location with good size.

"Friendly and helpful environment"

Mohammed Omar M Alsadhan, student from USA

It was a good experience. I felt I had improved my English with regards to reading writing, vocabulary and grammar.
I didn't mention the speaking part because we didn't focus on it in class. In general, Kaplan is a good school and I highly recommend it.

"An experience full of awesome people and incredible activities."

Sofia Herbas Loureiro, student from Bolivia

The classes and teachers are good, we do different kinds of activities so we never get bored. The location is excellent, it is easy to get there by bus or train and there you have a lot of places to eat, visit and shop.
My homestay is not good, I never talk with the family, that is why I requested to change my homestay.

visa

Visa support

We cannot apply for visas on behalf of students. However, the school can supply you with all the documentation you need to support your visa application.

If you are studying full time in the United States for more than 18 hours per week, you will receive an I-20 that you need to submit to the US embassy along with your F-1 student visa application. The I-20 has a SEVIS tracking number on it. Students who wish to apply for a student visa must pay the SEVIS fee online before going to the US embassy or consulate for their visa interview.

Your I-20 will be sent to your home address by regular mail at no charge to you. If you wish to receive your paperwork by express mail, you will be charged $100 when you register.

Please note that United States law states that an I-20 can only be issued to students who intend to pursue full-time English language studies. United States law does not permit students to study part-time with an F-1 Student Visa. If you are studying for less than 18 hours per week, you have to apply for a Visitor Visa (B1/B2) on your own.

Flights and airport transfer

The school offers airport pickup services. If you wish to be picked up, just give us your flight details and arrival date. The price of a one-way airport transfer from Boston Logan Airport is $125. You must book your airport transfer in advance when you register.

Please note that we do not book flights for our students. If you are researching airfare costs, we recommend using Kayak.com, a search engine that lets you compare flight options from your home country to Boston based on your budget, schedule and preferences.

Travel insurance

Study abroad worry-free with Language International's health and personal effects insurance coverage. When you book a course with us, you can opt to purchase an international insurance plan that covers not only your health care cost but also loss of your personal belongings. You must book your insurance in advance when you register.
