Improve your English language, academic grades  and study skills, for progression to Year 1 or 2 of a bachelor’s degree. You can also earn credits that you will transfer to your degree. Available disciplines include arts and sciences, business and computing.

Study your pathway program on Pace’s New York City campus and continue your studies there or progress to the Westchester campus, depending on your degree and preference.

Depending on your English language level, you will study 1, 2 or 3 semesters in the Global Pathways program. The courses you take and the credits you can earn are determined by your English level when you start.

What will I study?

The program combines university-level English preparation with specialized academic coursework. Some courses are credit-bearing and count toward your degree graduation requirements. Successful completion of the program guarantees your progression to a Pace University bachelor’s degree.

  • to improve your fluency and confidence in spoken and academic English
  • to enroll in a degree at Pace but don’t have eligible high school grades
  • extra time and support in adjusting to American university life
  • guaranteed progression to a bachelor’s degree (with a TOEFL waiver) on successful completion

"Learning English has opened up the world to me, so I think it’s important to expand my knowledge of the language. The Global Pathways program at Pace helped me so much. I also visited Pace’s academic support centers, where they identified my challenges and gave suggestions on how to overcome them. I don’t feel like I’m treated differently here because I’m an international student. In fact I’m treated really well, which makes me love Pace even more".

Location

With the iconic skyline right outside your window and the hustle and bustle on the streets below, it's easy to see why this city is the intersection of innovation, art, and power. This is your campus. From Tribeca to SoHo to the Village and Brooklyn, you could spend the next four years exploring NYC and never have the same experience twice.

At the foot of the iconic Brooklyn Bridge, Pace's downtown location places you at the epicenter of cutting-edge tech, the avant-garde art scene, and the fast-paced culture of Wall Street. Now one of the city's most exciting destinations for the arts, food, shopping, and sight-seeing, it's clear to see why NYC's oldest neighborhood is being called the new New York.
