2.6—English As a Second Language (ESL) Requirement

Upon arrival, an international student from a country where the first language is not English is required to take an English placement examination.

Based on the testing result, students needing English instruction will be placed in EDU T&L 506, 507, or 508. The student is expected to complete EDU T&L 508 within four quarters after beginning graduate school.

The graduate studies committee in the student’s graduate program may request an extension of the time limit. Such requests must be sent to the Graduate School for review. The Graduate School will monitor the student’s progress toward completing the ESL course sequence.
