Paul Schroeder, CEO of ILSC and Curt Uehlein, CEO of ELS said “We are excited to be bringing two organizations with such rich histories together to offer the international student community multiple options to pursue their language, higher education and career goals in three of the most popular destination countries for study abroad programs. We are convinced that a merged organization will provide enhanced choices and experiences to all students.”

The company will continue to operate as ILSC and Greystone College in Australia, Canada, and India (15 centres) and as ELS in the United States (currently 12 centres). The company will maintain all current support and communications contacts for our customers and partners - students, recruitment agents, regulatory agencies, and industry associations, and more than 800 university partners around the world.
