All new students take our ELLP Placement Test the week before class begins to determine their level. Levels 1-5 should take one 8-week session to complete. The Advanced and Bridge levels are a full semester (16 weeks). Students progress from one level to the next by earning an 80% (B-) or higher within each level of classes. Upon successful completion of all ESL classes and ELLP requirements, students who have applied to Loyola University Chicago for undergraduate study (and for some graduate programs) may substitute their successful completion of the English Language Learning Program for the TOEFL or IELTS score requirement in their program's application. Students who are part of the International Conditional Admission Program (ICAP) are also eligible to use their successful ELLP completion as a substitute for the TOEFL/IELTS score requirement.
