Immigrants attend American community colleges and language schools.

ESL provided by language schools generally belongs to the ESL of high schools and belongs to the credits of high school courses.

CC generally has ESL, but the ESL of CC is more difficult than that of language school, which belongs to junior college level.

If you go to CC, there will be exams, English and math before you enter the school, and you will be divided into classes according to your grades. Therefore, how long it takes to read a language depends on yourself and your English level.

It doesn't have to take two years to transfer, but every CC will say how many credits you want to take as a degree. You can transfer only after you have completed the requirements and completed the credits you want to take.

You can also transfer to another state, but your credits will be greatly discounted, because each state's university system is different, and each state will give priority to protecting its students.

GPA, first of all, the words used in college courses are very professional, so if English is poor, you can't understand it in class, but even if TOEFL can take 100+, there will still be difficulties in class. After all, your mother tongue is not English. Anyway, GPA depends entirely on your personal efforts.

good luck

No matter what your language level is, learning ESL is also an improvement for you. You said yourself that your English is poor, so you don't go to ESL.

How are you going to go to class? How to get credit? How did you transfer to big U after graduating from college?

New immigrants from the United States, some of whom don't have a high school diploma, all go to language schools to take exams after they come, and they all graduate from the assigned grades for three years and five years.

Don't think that learning ESL is a waste of time just because your English is not good. If you can't finish ESL, then I suggest you forget your college degree.

I don't know your specific level of English, but now you should learn to recite more words. The number of words is the basis of English. Personally, I think grammar is secondary. When we speak Chinese, who has nothing to do but think about grammar? . .

As for you saying that you are dumb in English, since you have chosen to emigrate, you must force yourself to speak more English. Moreover, the United States has such a language environment. You shop, ask for help and ask for directions. Which of these doesn't need English? ! If you dare not speak, then why are you still in America? ! How are you going to get a college diploma? ! How to survive in the future? !

I suggest you go to ESL in high school, that is, language school, and take a test first. See what your English level is.

The ESL scoring method is different in each state.

My advice to you is that if your test score is the highest grade, or a grade different from the highest grade. Then you can consider going to the university to sign up for the placement exam.

For example, in the language school where you take the exam, the total score of ESL is ***5. If your test result is below 3.

Then, I suggest you don't consider going to college for the time being, even if it is to learn the language first. Learn ESL in this language school first, reach the highest level before entering the university.

There is one thing I want to mention. I wonder if universities in every state are the same. I don't need to take the ESL first, but I can take the general education and professional courses first after I get the placement test results of English and mathematics. But I still have to take the ESL exam. If you don't go to ESL, you can't go to college English, and then you can't graduate.

Anyway, since you immigrate, you should be prepared to suffer hardships and encounter all kinds of difficulties and setbacks ~

Good luck again ~!
