Does UDC have an English as a Second Language (ESL) Program?
Yes. In order to enter the ESL program, the individual must first enroll as a UDC student. This is the case even if the student is only interested in attending UDC for the sole purpose of studying ESL. After being admitted to UDC, the student will be informed of the date in which to take the C.E.L.T. (Comprehensive English Language Test). The results of the C.E.L.T. will be given to the student. The student will then bring those results to a meeting with the ESL Coordinator, Dr. Ahmed El-Bashir. Dr. El-Bashir’s office is in Building 41, Room 462-02. (The ESL Director’s, Dr. H. Hailu, office is located in Building 41, Room 462-02.) His phone number is (202) 274-5556. The street address is 4200 Connecticut Avenue, NW, Van Ness Campus.
