Requests should be made in writing to the associate director of admissions. An individual assessment will be made of each student participating in ESL study while attending secondary school. Such students are encouraged to submit documentation of their current level of proficiency in English. Also, their secondary schools are encouraged to provide such additional information as transcript annotations designating the college preparatory level for appropriate ESL sections, course descriptions, and other indices of English proficiency sufficient to succeed in college. Rhode Island College supports the efforts of secondary school officials and governing bodies to have their schools achieve regional accreditation status to provide reliable assurance of the quality of the educational preparation of applicants for admission.
Forms are available from the admissions office and from high school guidance offices.
The applicant must arrange to have these materials forwarded to the admissions office. In most instances applicants are required to submit senior mid-year grades for review.
