Visitor Enrollment FAQs

Who is General English + Conversation Practice designed for?

This course is designed for visitors and tourists spending several weeks or months in Florida who want to improve their English while visiting family, enjoying a vacation, meeting new people, and exploring the area.

What is General English + Conversation Practice?

It is a practical and social English course focused on conversation, listening, travel vocabulary, everyday communication, grammar, reading, and writing. Students practice the English they can use with family, at restaurants, while shopping, at the beach, at attractions, and throughout their time in the United States.

Can I study while I am visiting family or vacationing in Florida?

Yes. Many students choose this course because they want a meaningful activity during an extended family visit or Florida vacation. You may select an available part-time or full-time schedule based on your placement level, plans, and seat availability.

Will I meet people from other countries?

Yes. Latitude’s welcoming classrooms bring together people from many countries, backgrounds, and cultures. Conversation practice, group activities, shared meals, and school-hosted experiences make it easy to build confidence and new friendships.

What if I want to continue my study with Latitude Language?

If you would like to continue studying with Latitude Language for more than a few months, speak with our Admissions Team before making plans. Our team can explain the specifics of whether you may be eligible to change your status in the United States or interview for the F-1 student visa in your country, and which enrollment option would apply.

Classes and Schedule FAQs

Are there attendance requirements?

There are no formal attendance requirements for this enrollment path. However, regular attendance and active participation are essential for meaningful English improvement. Tuition remains due for the schedule you select even when you miss class.

Can I pay for only a day or week of class?

No. Latitude does not offer daily or weekly tuition. Tuition is paid for the month because attending for only a few days or one week does not provide enough time for meaningful English improvement and creates unnecessary enrollment and classroom disruption.

Can I try one or two classes before enrolling?

No. Latitude does not offer trial classes. A student without the required textbook, workbook, student materials, and MyEnglishLab access cannot fully participate or follow the class. Trial attendance also disrupts enrolled students who have paid and committed to their English study.

Why are textbooks, student materials, and MyEnglishLab required?

The textbook, workbook, student materials, and MyEnglishLab assignments, quizzes, and tests are integrated into instruction and practice. Students need all materials from the beginning to participate successfully.

May I choose my English level?

Your online English Placement Test determines your starting level. This helps Latitude place you in a class where you can participate successfully and continue making measurable progress.

May I choose my schedule?

You may request any schedule offered for your placement level. Final placement depends on your English Placement Test results and current seat availability.

Application and Payment FAQs

What is included in the initial one-time $170 fee?

The fee includes $75 for enrollment and the online English Placement Test plus $95 for textbooks, student materials, and MyEnglishLab access for assignments, quizzes, and tests.

When is tuition due?

Your first tuition payment is due one week before your class start date. Going forward tuition is always due on the first day of each month.

How can I pay school fees and tuition?

Payments can be made by domestic or international wire, Paypal, international or domestic credit card, domestic bank account with Zelle or cash. Admissions will provide an invoice and list current options for domestic or international payment after reviewing your application.

What documents should I provide?

Complete the online application and provide a copy of your unexpired passport information page. Admissions will tell you if any additional information is needed to confirm your course and schedule options.

What is Latitude Language's age restriction and admission policy?

In order to attend Latitude Language, you should have a need to improve your English and be age 17 or older, or age 15 or 16 with a parental waiver and U.S. guardian assignment. Admission and schedule placement are confirmed after Latitude reviews your application and English Placement Test results.
