Students who are academically qualified but have not met Hamline’s minimum English proficiency requirement may receive conditional admission. Students are referred to the Global Language Institute (gli.edu) or ELS Language Center (els.edu) in Saint Paul, where they may study English until achieving the school’s highest level of English. Once they have successfully completed this, they will transfer directly to Hamline.
