New ESOL Student Orientation

How to get started?

Welcome to Highline College! We are glad that you are here. We have 3 steps to get started.

1. Do the ESOL assessment. You will think about your English level. We are doing in person ESOL orientations only.
   Orientation Time:
   • Tuesdays at 6:00PM. Please note: Tuesdays: students can start check in at 4:30pm not before.
   • Thursday at 2:00pM. Please note: Thursdays: students can start check in at 12:30pm not before.
2. Building 19 Room 102 at Highline College.
3. If you are not able to attend ESOL orientation in person, please reach out to ELCAP office staff by email: elcapofficestaff@highline.edu or call the office at: 206-592-3297.
4. Prepare for class. After you do the assessment, you will get an email invitation to register and prepare for class. This class will be on Zoom and on Canvas.
5. Start your class with your teacher. After you complete the Canvas class, you will get an email from your teacher.

(If you have been out of our program for more than 6 months, or you are new to Washington state, please do these three steps again.)
