Summer Campus Program at UCLA

June 29, 2024 – August 10, 2024

Live on campus at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) and study English with English Language Center (ELC) at our UCLA Adult Summer Campus Program. Our program is offered during the summer months of July and August and allows students to combine living in a UCLA dormitory accommodation with one of our General English or Test Preparation Courses. Students attend morning ELC English classes Monday through Friday on campus in UCLA classrooms. This is the perfect way to improve your English skills and have an authentic UCLA experience. Students enrolled in the Semi-Intensive Course take their classes on campus. Students wishing to also study in the afternoon may take their classes at the ELC Los Angeles center. Afternoon group activities are also available at the ELC Los Angeles school.

Note: Students with afternoon classes will attend those classes at the main ELC location.
