INTO Suffolk students gathered to work on a class project.

At every academic level throughout your program of study, you will receive personalized academic advising and support services. You’ll form close bonds with your professors and fellow students in small classes led by English-language teaching professionals and University faculty members. As an INTO Suffolk student, you’ll enjoy the same privileges as Suffolk students, including full access to all University facilities and offerings—from recreation centers and libraries to clubs, athletics, and events all around campus.
