New York within reach,
without the chaos
An ESL summer programme for international students aged 12 to 22. Two weeks and thirteen nights on the campus of Felician University, a 30-minute ride from Times Square. Two sessions in 2027: 7 to 20 July and 21 July to 3 August.
Where your American dream begins
Nestled in the heart of Rutherford, a quiet and welcoming town in New Jersey just a stone's throw from New York City, Felician University has nearly a century of history. Founded in 1923 as a college focused on education, today it's a private Catholic Franciscan university with an international reputation, blending tradition and innovation to create a welcoming and inspiring learning environment.
You'll stay on site in a modern student residence, with spacious rooms and shared common areas where you can relax, study or meet new friends from all over the world. Times Square is just 30 minutes away by private coach.
Everything you need, in New York
New York within reach, without the chaos
We're just 35 minutes from Manhattan, in a peaceful, green neighbourhood: the perfect balance between big-city excitement and the comfort of a safe, authentic American environment, ideal for learning, growing and having fun.
A learning programme designed around you
Not just English lessons, but a complete educational journey that includes interactive classes, hands-on workshops, and cultural experiences to help you understand and live the American way of life.
A team with you every step of the way
With 24/7 support and a mix of Italian and international staff on site, you'll be looked after from the moment you leave until the day you return home, with care and lots of good energy.
Way more than a holiday
From group lessons to a picnic in Central Park, from grabbing a slice with friends near the Empire State Building to public-speaking labs and your final certificate, you'll come back having lived New York like a true local.
Live New York like a local
Mornings are all about interactive English lessons with qualified teachers. In the afternoon, a private coach takes you to explore the city like real locals, from world-famous landmarks to hidden gems, led by our international activity leaders. Most evenings you dine out in the city with a prepaid card; weekends are full days out, starting with a classic New York brunch.
Up to eleven full-day excursions across New York, depending on the formula
Entry included to five must-see attractions: the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, Summit One Vanderbilt, MoMA, the United Nations guided tour, and the National Museum of the American Indian.
