The SPEAK test is used for all international students who have been offered assistantships. The speaking section of the TOEFL iBT cannot be used to replace the SPEAK test.
Students scoring 50 on the SPEAK test will be recommended, but not required, to take ELI 512.
Students scoring below 50 will be required to take ELI 512.
The three credits earned from ELI 512 can be applied toward their PhD credit requirements, if desired.
