Results of placement testing will determine whether the students will be enrolled full time in the ESL program or be eligible to take some academic course work. A student's full-time academic schedule may include both ESL and regular courses. Once a student has achieved an acceptable level of language proficiency, demonstrated through high academic performance in ESL coursework and sufficient scores on standardized tests, he or she will be admitted to regular status and be eligible for full-time regular academic coursework.
