STEP 1

 A Comprehensive Introduction and Preparation to college in the USA

They will explore their academic interests, get a taste of college life in the U.S., and what it feels like living in Florida. The length of Step 1 is a minimum of 4 months but in some cases may be longer depending on the level of English proficiency of the student at the time of enrollment.
