Country notes reviewed 17 October 2026.
As published by Study in the States (US Department of Homeland Security) on 2026-10-17: a stand-alone English programme is offered by a school that lists only English language training on its Form I-17; a combined programme is offered by a school that lists English alongside other programmes. English language training must be accredited by an agency recognised by the US Department of Education, and a full course of study is 18 clock hours per week (classroom-based) or 22 (lab-based); online courses do not count toward that requirement.
