The Center for English Language Programs (CELP) is a unit of Global Education at Minnesota State University, Mankato. CELP includes the Intensive English Program (IEP) which offers undergraduate and graduate students English language training in order to prepare them for academic studies in a university context. IEP students are conditionally admitted to the university and upon successful completion of the advanced level are eligible to enroll as regular degree-seeking students. In addition to the IEP, CELP also offers short-term language programs (4-6 weeks) based on the specific needs of sponsoring agencies and various institutional partners.
