4. Description Abstract The objective of this study is to explore the status of English for Academic Purposes in terms of factors, content, methodology and assessment, among Moroccan English Department students. A cross-sectional design constitutes the methodology of this research wherein a sample of fifty-two students completed a Google form questionnaire using non-probability voluntary sampling. Although this study is a small-scale study that cannot be generalized, the results revealed that students choose to study English for Academic purposes for extrinsic motivational factors, especially to get a job in teaching, set up a business or travel abroad. The content of the courses focuses mainly on printed materials. The methodology is mainly teacher-centered based on delivering lectures and module-specific activities. Assessment is mainly summative in nature. Therefore, students provided many recommendations.
