During its pilot class, Arizona State University (ASU) provided BBS students access to the school’s online ESL program, Learn English Now (LEN), and BBS ESL instructors have access to advising and mentoring from ASU’s staff and faculty. BBS will seek to extend and grow the partnership with ASU in future years.
