Is CIES expensive to attend?
No, CIES is less costly than most intensive English programs. To compare the costs for instruction at two intensive English programs, you must first determine the hourly cost of instruction. CIES offers students 24 academic hours of live classes per week. This does not count other CIES activities, computer labs, etc. If you attend CIES for 7 weeks, you are only paying $11.00 per hour. In addition, CIES tuition includes all books, photocopies, activities and free coffee and tea! These are usually “extra” costs at other intensive English programs.
