Consider the following information to apply:
Language Proficiency
All students whose first language is not English must meet the TRU Language Proficiency requirements. If no official evidence is provided, the student will be required to complete an English Language Proficiency (EPT) test on arrival. Students will not be guaranteed OR registered into requested classes until the English Language Proficiency (EPT) test has been completed.
Students may meet this condition by either providing an acceptable English language proficiency test score (TOEFL, IELTS, etc.) or by achieving an acceptable score on the TRU English Placement Test (EPT). If students do not provide a test score in advance, they will be tested on arrival and their course placement decisions will be made at that time. Recommended to complete acceptable tests prior to arrival to improve course selection options, however this is not mandatory.
