Does ISI language school require you to know how to write kanji?

Has anyone attended ISI language school and can tell me if they were expected to know how to write kanji or just read it? I'm attending in April and what to know if I should start jamming writing practice or not.

For some reason I cannot get a straight answer from the school. Of course I've asked. Is anyone willing to tell me their experience?
