Overview
IMG Academies hosts a variety of English As a Second Language programs for our international visitors, campers, Academy participants, and community members. The IMG University & Language Center, housed in the IMG Pendleton school building, administers these English programs.
Intensive English Program: The ULC directs the Intensive English Program which is open to all ages and levels of English. School-aged children ages 12 & above as well as parents can enroll in this full-time academic program (I-20s are available for student visas). Post-grads are also eligible to enroll to prepare for entrance into an English-speaking university. TOEFL preparation is available for advanced students. This program is most commonly paired with an Academy sport program. This program is also open to community members who wish to enroll in a full-time academic English program.
Sport + English Camps: The ULC also houses the sport + English camp programs, including our summer camp programs (15 hours per week of English activities paired with a sports program). Tourists to the USA who wish to visit IMG Academies can supplement their sports camp with additional English classes (purchased by the week). Camp English is available almost every week of the year and is open to parents and family members as well
Adult English Programs: Certain English programs are open to members of the community who are not taking a sport at IMG Academies. Please see “Adult English Programs” for information on how to join our academic community. We also encourage parents of our Academy students to enroll in our part-time English programs.


The IMG College Planning and Placement Center works with all students including post-graduates to create an individualized roadmap to reach their goal of studying and playing their sport at the collegiate level. This work begins upon a student’s entry into high school (grade 9) and incorporates families, coaches, and university admissions and athletic staff in their efforts.
