To determine your entry level, you will take our ESOL placement test, the Accuplacer. You will not have to take the TOEFL for either admissions or placement for ESOL courses.

To exit the ESOL program, you will need to pass ESOL 0044 and ESOL 0054 or pass the reading and writing sections of the TSI Assessment.

In addition to the 16 regular ESOL courses, we offer:

  • Four skill development courses (ESOL 0036, 0046, 0056, and 0066), which provide extra practice with language skills as well as attention to special topics such as medical terminology.
  • Integrated Reading and Writing (ESOL 0315), which helps students transition from our ESOL program to regular college classes.
