Worth it.

The course itself pushed me to do things that I never thought I'd do, but that wasn't even the most valuable part to me. The support from the school before, during, and after the course made it absolutely worth the money. While optional, the "extras" offered helped me integrate more confidently than I expected, and I greatly appreciate that. The orientation was worth the money, as I felt that my classmates and I bonded before the course even started, as well as signing up for Visa Guru. The course cost itself is reasonable, and the support available for jobs and the assistance in finding them is invaluable. The staff were basically willing to help with everything.
Pro tip: study the grammar packet as soon as you get it, and often. It'll save some stress.
