Gallaudet University is the first university in the world geared toward a deaf student body. The English Language Institute (ELI) here at Gallaudet University uses American Sign Language as the language of instruction. Deaf and hard of hearing people are welcome to apply to the ELI. Hearing people with an interest in working with deaf people are also welcome to apply to the ELI as well.
