Citzenship

Citizenship

Free Citizenship classes for adults who are eligible to become United States citizens. Our comprehensive citizenship programs are designed to help the citizenship applicant through the entire application process. The course includes instruction in US civics, history, and government. In addition, the instructor helps the students complete and submit their citizenship applications as well as preparing them to pass the official citizenship review.

All registered citizenship students will be prepared for Naturalization. Preparation for the interview is included in the citizenship class. This takes place throughout the course and especially after the applicant has submitted the citizenship application and is waiting for the citizenship interview. Practice is provided in written dictation and in answering questions for the oral interview. You might also have the opportunity to drive to the interview with your teacher and or classmates who are scheduled on the same day.
