Welcome!

The Culture and Intensive English Program welcomes you to its website. The program is part of the University of Northern Iowa under the Office of International Programs. Its job is to provide English language instruction and cultural orientation to our students, international community, and others. The materials on this website provide information on a variety of topics including services, policies, procedures, events, cultural information, website links and program information. Through this website, we hope to provide information which will allow students to make the most of their experience at CIEP and to support the international community at the University of Northern Iowa.
