Every year thousands of applicants from around the world decide to enter the US higher education institutions, but this process involves certain difficulties in the language, the organization of the education system, a new environment for themselves, society, and way of life. Especially for international students, INTO University of South Florida operates the International Year One program, which is an adaptation course for the first semester of undergraduate studies in various fields. For admission, you must have a diploma of completed school education and a certain level of language - the duration of studying depends on it. The great advantage of the program is that students do not lose time and immediately after the completion of International Year One they pass to the chosen specialty of the bachelor degree (the next semester in the order). There are 9 directions in total:

Architecture:
Visual and Performing Arts
Business
Computer science and engineering
Education
Engineering
Liberal Arts
Natural Sciences and Health Sciences.

Studying in each of the areas includes:

English academic language. Participants in 3 and 2-semester programs are intensively engaged in the development of English language skills. Classes are conducted by highly qualified specialists who have many years of experience working with foreign students. Classes are conducted around the main sections of linguistics: grammar, writing, speaking, listening. By the end of studying, the level of language is significantly increased.
Skills of career development. Special seminars are held to develop employment and career development skills. Classes include: advising on the organization of the labour market in the US and other countries of the world, the process of finding a job, compiling a resume and passing an interview, the first steps in a career and other issues. These classes provide students with significant assistance in the process of the forthcoming search for their "own" place of work and climbing the career ladder.
Skills of university education. One of the conditions for a successful learning process in the US is the mastery of the methods and methodology of study and research, which is why special classes embedded in subject modules are sent (in some cases, they can be taught separately) and encompassing the study of a number of skills that help to become real and motivated students and researchers.
Academic disciplines. This group includes a wide range of subjects in the chosen area of study. In fact, these are the same subjects that freshmen undergraduate students study.

All classes are conducted in small groups, which allows each student to work with teachers individually. All university teachers have exceptionally high qualifications and academic degrees, and are able to create a cozy and friendly atmosphere. In addition, all participants can count on round the clock assistance and support from the staff of the University for everyday and educational matters. Centers for work with foreign students and other units regularly hold special events aimed at their adaptation and involvement in university-wide life.

After successfully completing the studies at the International Year One, students pass to the chosen bachelor's degree for the next semester (for example, the participants of the 2-semester program pass to the 3rd semester of the Bachelor's program, and the participants of the semester program for the 2 semester).
