International Orientation:  All new incoming international students are required to complete a mandatory international orientation, on our campus, prior to the start of school in August.  This orientation is designed to enhance the student’s language skills in the classroom, expand his or her knowledge of world and American history, and expose the student to American culture.  Our yearly tuition covers the cost of attending International Orientation.  It does not cover the cost of home stay or travel expenses.

Summer Immersion: Our Summer Immersion Institute is crafted to significantly enhance a student’s written and spoken English while boosting their language proficiency scores (TOEFL Junior, Duolingo, IELTS, ITEP Slate etc….  Through a dynamic blend of carefully selected reading materials, vocabulary building exercises, tech-integrated learning, writing projects, and listening practice, students develop their language skills both in and out of the classroom.

Our program introduces you to the uniquely interactive, western style teaching that moves beyond rote memorization, engaging students in meaningful, hands-on learning.  Plus, you’ll gain a practical understanding of Western culture teaching with commonly spoken English (colloquial English).  We’ll explore idioms, formal and informal speech and commonly used SAT words.  Come and learn!  Come and grow! Come and develop friendships with other students from around the world.

Preparing for and applying to college can be complicated. At Vacaville Christian, high school and college counseling begins as early as eighth grade. We assist students with designing high school schedules that qualify them for application to all of the top schools in the US. They are administered college board tests in grades 8, 9, 10, and 11. Students also receive training in college essay.

Students who study at VCS not only have a better understanding and command of the English language, they are also exposed to American style teaching, which tends to be more participatory than schools in many other countries. Students who do well on placement or standardized achievement tests may still struggle because of the fast pace of the classroom. Our focus is on preparing international students for the level of classroom interaction that will be required on the college level.

While academic performance is extremely important, many things learned by international students happen outside of the classroom. Relationships built with other students, host families, sports team members, and people in the community are important contributors to each student’s future success in university. We want students to succeed in and out of the classroom.

Colleges and universities are interested in every aspect of a student when making an admissions determination. They explore grades, the student’s course of study throughout high school, his or her extracurricular activities, and who he or she is as a person. Universities look for men and women of strong character who develop themselves as leaders and concerned citizens on their way to college. Vacaville Christian offers many opportunities for students to develop in these areas through clubs, student government, ambassador programs, sports, community activities, the arts, etc. Once again, we are here to encourage the student to develop and grow in every area of his or her life.
