Insurance and American Visa Information Medical InsuranceIf you are a student from outside of the United States, GEOS Language Institute Boston can provide you with medical insurance for your time at our school. We currently use an insurance company that will pay claims for 80% to 100% of the scheduled doctors' fees and medication.

  I took TOEFL classes for 8 weeks at GEOS Boston. The TOEFL classes are very well organized and I believe that these classes are extremely useful. They have improved my reading and listening skills that I need for the TOEFL test. The registration service at GEOS Boston is very fast. I applied for an I-20 form from Turkey and I received my documents for a visa after five days.My teachers, Mark and Jules, are really good teachers. They are helpful to the students. If you have a question about classes, they are eager to respond. Thanks to Mark and Jules, my classes at GEOS Boston were very effective and enjoyable.Boston is a very attractive and historical city and the location of GEOS Boston is very good. Transportation from my home to GEOS Boston is very easy and quick.I would strongly recommend GEOS Boston to my friends, because it provides good classes and a lot of good cultural experiences. The best experiences I had at GEOS Boston were the ice-cream parties in TOEFL classes. Mark brings us ice-cream frequently and it helps us to focus in class. It is not common in English Institutes and it shows that the study environment at GEOS Boston is very friendly and caring. Umut Varli Turkey |
