Citizenship Classes

LVCA offers citizenship classes throughout the year. Classes are open to people in our community, who have a Green Card, and who will be ready to apply for citizenship in 1 to 2 years. We offer citizenship classes using intermediate-level English and basic-level English.

  • Classes are free, but we ask that new students pay for class materials if they are able ($10-$30)
  • Registration is required

New Students and students who have not taken classes with LVCA in the past year: Before the class starts, you will need to have a one-hour meeting to fill out our registration forms and take an English test.  After you register for the class, we will contact you to schedule your meeting.  

Our address is 233 4th St NW, Box L, Charlottesville, VA 22903. Our text number is 833-759-0380.
